Land O'Lakes Butter with Canola Oil
What it is
This is a blend of butter and canola oil, designed to offer the rich flavor of butter with improved spreadability, especially when cold. It combines the creamy texture and taste of dairy butter with the lighter consistency that canola oil provides. This product aims to make spreading easier straight from the refrigerator, reducing the need to wait for butter to soften.
How people cook with it
It is a versatile ingredient for both cooking and baking, as well as for everyday use on toast or vegetables.
- Spreading on toast
- Baking cookies
- Sautéing vegetables
- Melting over corn
This butter blend can be used in any application where you would typically use butter. It melts and browns similarly to regular butter, making it suitable for sautéing, pan-frying, and roasting. In baking, it can contribute to the texture and flavor of cakes, cookies, and pastries. Its enhanced spreadability means it can be applied directly to bread or muffins without tearing them. It can also be whipped into frostings or used to finish cooked dishes.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike 100% butter, this blend contains canola oil, which lowers its melting point and makes it softer at refrigerator temperatures. This results in a spread that is easier to apply directly from the fridge, whereas traditional butter can be quite hard and difficult to spread when cold.
Who it is for
Home cooks and bakers who appreciate the convenience of a spreadable butter.
How to keep the rest
Keep refrigerated. Store the remaining product in its original container or an airtight container to maintain freshness. Proper storage helps prevent it from absorbing odors from other foods in the refrigerator and preserves its texture and flavor.
