Additive Free Cultured Butter

Place cream into Thermomix bowl and warm for 5 min/37°C/speed 2.
Add yoghurt and stir through for 15 sec/speed 2.
Pour into warmed, sterilised glass jar or Thermos flask and keep at temperature for 12 hours. The glass jar must go into a yoghurt maker or similar to stay warm…this can be up to 24 hours or even longer, within reason…a week is too long.
Chill the newly cultured cream until totally cold…colder the better.
Return cream to a COLD Thermomix bowl with Butterfly attached. Whip until separation occurs. Drain off the buttermilk after you have separation and you have Cultured Buttermilk as well…
Wash the butter by removing the Butterfly and pouring into the Thermomix bowl, plenty of icy cold water. Close the lid and wash for 20 sec/speed 5, occasionally hitting the Reverse function so that you get a washing machine action!
Remove liquid from butter by squeezing, add flavorings of choice (salt, sugar, honey, cinnamon etc) and pot the butter into small bowls or dishes.

Can be frozen.
