Many people choose to freeze butter. But how to do it safely so that the product does not lose its quality? It turns out that the key is the proper storage of the product, for which aluminum foil is crucial.

Salted butter stays fresh for up to a year. Unsalted butter can be stored in the freezer for up to six months. In both cases, an airtight container is key to extend shelf life.

  • Wrapping the cubes in aluminum foil will help preserve the quality of the product.

Whether you choose salted or unsalted butter, the key to keeping it fresh is the right packaging.

Defrosting butter requires patience and the right procedure.

  • It is best done in the refrigerator, which allows the butter to gradually gain its consistency. This process usually takes 12 to 24 hours.

Defrosting at room temperature is not recommended, as it can negatively affect the structure and taste of the product.
