Brummel & Brown Buttery Spread with Yogurt
What it is
This is a buttery spread that combines vegetable oil with nonfat yogurt. It is designed to offer a lighter alternative to traditional butter or margarine. The yogurt contributes to its texture and flavor profile, providing a slightly tangy note. This spread is typically used in place of butter for various cooking and baking applications.
How people cook with it
It's a versatile ingredient that can be used in both sweet and savory dishes.
- Spreading on toast
- Baking cookies
- Sautéing vegetables
- Making sauces
You can use this spread just as you would butter or margarine. For baking, it can be creamed with sugar for cakes and cookies, or melted for brownies and quick breads. In savory cooking, it works well for sautéing vegetables, pan-frying meats, or as a base for pan sauces. Its spreadability makes it convenient for everyday use on bread, muffins, or pancakes. When substituting for butter in recipes, consider its different melting point and fat content.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to butter, this spread contains less saturated fat due to the vegetable oil and yogurt. The addition of yogurt also gives it a slightly softer texture and a subtle tang that can complement certain baked goods and savory dishes differently than pure butter.
Who it is for
Home cooks looking for a spread with a lighter profile for everyday use.
How to keep the rest
Keep refrigerated to maintain its texture and freshness. Once opened, it should be consumed within a reasonable timeframe, typically indicated by the expiration date on the packaging. Ensure the container is tightly sealed to prevent it from absorbing odors from other foods in the refrigerator.
