Ingredients:

1 16 oz mason jar

1 cup heavy cream 38% fat content

1/4 teaspoon salt ( optional)

cold water

1. Pour 1 cup of heavy cream into the mason jar, filling it about half-way full.

2. If you want salted butter add 1/4 teaspoon into jar. Screw the lid on.

3. Shake mason jar for approximately 10 minutes. After the first few minutes you'll have whipped cream. Keep shaking until you hear that a lump has formed inside, and shake an additional 30-60 seconds after that.

4. Remove the solids from the jar. The remaining liquid is buttermilk. You can save that for other recipes, or discard it.

5. Place the solids into a small bowl. Pour cold water over the butter and use your hands to squish it into a ball. Discard water and repeat rinsing 2 times more.

6. At this point you have butter.

When shaking mason jar, put on some music and get moving.
