Why Butter Always Tastes Better At A Restaurant Than At Home
Why Butter Always Tastes Better At A Restaurant Than At Home
There are plenty of reasons to go out to eat, one of which might be that you've noticed the butter tastes better there. Maybe you noticed it when you spread it across your toast, or maybe you noticed it when the butter melted over your steak. Whatever the case, the butter in restaurants is a cut above the rest — it tastes creamier and softer when you're dining out. But why and how is it better in restaurants than it is at home? It comes down to a couple of factors.
The butter used in restaurants is no different than the butter you have at home, but there are some differences that impact the taste. Firstly, restaurants use fresh butter, whereas, at home, you're usually pulling from the butter carton that has been in your fridge for weeks. Secondly, restaurants store their butter at the perfect temperature in order to ensure it tastes its best for the diner.
