Butter Keeper Crock, Bird Motive, Yellow
Have your butter always ready for spreading in this new butter crock. It is glazed in a beautiful matte yellow with some red brown spots. It shows some slight floral carvings and bird details, which required an extra step of firing. This dish holds two butter sticks or 250g of butter. Instructions are included.
A French butter dish is a container used to maintain the freshness and spreadable consistency of butter without refrigeration. This late 19th century French-designed pottery crock has two parts: a base that holds water, and a cup to hold the packed butter which also serves as a lid. The cup containing butter is placed into the base, where water creates an airtight seal that keeps the air (and thus oxygen) away from the butter so that refrigeration is not needed, and the butter can be used in its soft form. This method will keep butter for around a month provided it is kept at temperatures below 80 °F (27 °C) and the water is changed regularly.
Height: 3.5” (9cm)
Diameter: 4.5” (11.5cm)
This dish is food-, microwave-, and dishwasher safe. My signature is marked on the bottom.
