We were learning about Farming in the Past in History this week and learned that people made their own butter in butter churns. Teacher brought in some cream and whisked and whisked until it became solid. It changed from a white creamy liquid into a solid yellow colour just like the butter we buy in shops. The liquid was drained from the butter. This liquid is called buttermilk. Some people use it to drink or to make soda bread. The butter tasted delicious on brown bread or crackers. |
