Quick n' Easy: Ways to Soften Butter

June 30 at 1:29 pm - Link

Carla Thompson and edythe liked this

I like hard (not frozen) butter when I make cookies; it helps me get the right shape - RAPatton

Do you hand mix? Or do you use a mixer? I try to use hard butter when baking, but I always feel like I have carpal tunnel afterwards. Softened butter is a must for a good grilled cheese, though. - Mark Trapp

but i thought in general all normally cold ingredients for baking--eggs, butter, margarine--should be at room temperature. - edythe

Edythe, depends a bit on what you're baking and combining. If you're going for a flaky pie crust with butter, try to use REALLY cold butter and don't overwork it into the flour (as it melts during baking, will release steam into tiny pockets ==> great, light crust). - Casey

a use a kitchen aide at slow for all the ingredients accept thefinal add INS (chocolate chips etc.) which I hand mix in - RAPatton

By the way, all my photos are donated to Public Domain, so if you want a shot of the White House, you can use mine without giving me credit. - Robert Scoble

Scobles' for Prez !! .if he runs in 2018 will you elect him ? :)- pss. take a look at the first pic ! - Peter Dawson

Peter: yeah, look at that first photo: FriendFeed goes to the White House! :-) - Robert Scoble

Robert, great experience for you son, he will remember this always. What an awesome time in history for him to be able to experience this and see if from the inside. Thanks for sharing with FF. - Fred Neil

This is good stuff Robert - Especially your comment about Public Domain. Have used one or two in the past. Agree, fabulous experience for your son. Did you say the Press Secretary is on Friendfeed now ?? :) - Charlie Anzman

RS - just let me point out that if Bush, Cheney and the neocons do succeed in pushing an Iran War over the opposition of the American people, the effects on the high tech industry could be catastrophic -- these issues are intimately linked. A devasted American economy will directly impact high tech projects in a negative way. - Sean McBride

Charlie: I'm trying to get Scott Stanzel onto FriendFeed. I think it'd be an awesome way for him to find a new PR job after he is sent back to normal life in January. :-) - Robert Scoble

Robert, when are you going to enter politics? I think you'd fare well, especially in San Francisco. - Jesse Stay via twhirl

Rocky would tell those press where to put it (love that pic!) - Jesse Stay via twhirl

That'd be fab. Want to DM me your mobile number or IM? I'm ryancarson on Twitter. - Ryan Carson via Alert Thingy

Jesse: Scoble has some winning traits for a career in politics: bright, personable and focused on enlightened, creative capitalism. And, unlike John McCain, he actually has some experience with using a PC on the Internet. :) - Sean McBride

These are fantastic! Now I'm going to have to subscribe to your feed again, Robert. ; ) Love the one of Rocky at the WWII memorial. Did you take that? Simply gorgeous. - Carla Thompson

Carla, yeah, I shot that of Rocky. Thomas Hawk taught me to use a simple 50 mm fast lens and to appreciate the night light for getting great photos. - Robert Scoble
