Make Cold Butter Toast-Ready With One Genius Move
NEWS
BY HILARY WHEELAN REMLEY
Trying to spread a cold pat of butter can result in tears, snags, and lumps of unevenly spread globs across your bread. However, you can
avoid this using a vegetable peeler.
Simply "peel" your cold butter as you would a carrot, rolling the blades along the stick lengthwise. This will cut your butter into long, thin strips.
Once sliced, you can place the butter onto your toast, bagel, English muffin, etc. If you'd prefer smaller bits of butter, you can further slice the strips into smaller pieces.
The thin slices of butter melt easily into your bread. If you don’t have a vegetable peeler, you can also use a microplane, box grater, or even
a knife to make small slices.
