Melted Butter - Is It OK To Reuse?!


Question:

Melted Butter - Is It OK To Reuse?

When butter has been left out too long and it melts, can I put it back into the fridge to harden and safely use it later?
What about butter that I melted in the microwave?
Is there a limit to how many times one can melt and harden butter, and reuse?

Much Appreciated :-)


Answers:

Yes you can reuse. Butter is whipped, so maybe it will have a milky look to it, but it really is fine. The same thing happens to milk when you freeze it. The cream separates. You can do it over and over, and you will be ok...Just keep stirring it up...
