We have started eating butter in place of margarine and "spreads" as not only does it taste much better, but i feel that something that has ingredients you can recognise has got to be better for you than a tub of chemicals and additives.
The only problem is how to make it/keep it spreadable, i remember as a kid my mum having some sort of plastic insulated butter dish, but the only ones i can find now are over 20 quid and they don't have great reviews ! I have tried sticking it in the microwave on defrost for a few seconds but the centre turns to liquid before the outer has softened.
Any ideas anyone ?
