Amazake Butter
Cultured butter is one of those hearty foods that sooths the soul and warms ones bones as the frigid grasp of late fall and winter starts to take hold. You could go to the grocery store and pay $8 for a 4oz piece or you could just as easily make 1 pound at home. You can get great heavy cream from my friends over at Ohio City Provisions and you can purchase amazake at Larder. From there you just need a little time and elbow grease to get some of the best butter and buttermilk that you could ever dream up.
