Butter
Butter has been a staple in recipes for centuries. Its rich, creamy texture and unique flavor make it a popular ingredient in a variety of dishes.
The history of butter dates back to ancient times. Early humans likely discovered butter by accident, when they found that milk from cows, goats, and other animals solidified when left out in the sun.
The first butter recipes were probably simply a mixture of milk and cream, which was then churned by hand to create the butter. These early butter recipes were likely used for basic cooking and baking needs.
