Can I use Fresh White Butter for cooking purposes?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Safed Makkhan is ready to fry and brown through; richly flavored and slightly crumbly creamy texture is ready to embed in parathas, rotis, and curries. Some people even do that with dal tadka and gajar ka halwa.

Question 3

Is Homemade White Butter better than store-bought?

Yes, homemade white butter is more fresh as well as tasty than purchased butter from shops. The homemade safed makkhan will not contain preservatives or an artificial taste. It is much healthier.

Question 4

How is Safed Makkhan different from normal butter?

Accepted Answer

Unlike regular butter, prepared usually from churned cream, fresh white butter (safed makkhan) is prepared from churned curd. It, therefore, has a distinct flavor and texture, generally softer and creamier, so it's so much in demand in Indian households.

Question 7

Can Safed Makkhan be used for baking?

Accepted Answer

Fresh white butter can be used in baking recipes. It presents a rich flavor to cakes, cookies, and pastries. Its creamy texture is further enhanced by the presentation of the overall texture and moisture content of baked items.
