Challenge's European Style Butter Tops Taste Test

In a blind taste test among culinary professionals, Challenge Dairy’s European Style Butter took first place, topping 10 other European style butters. Challenge’s winning taste was described as “mild,” “fresh,” “clean,” and “rich” with a “pronounced dairy flavor.” Quality and taste are our highest priorities, so it is always an honor to be recognized as a leader among both imported and domestic butters.

If you are wondering, European style butters have a creamier taste and silkier texture due to a slightly higher fat content. It is made by churning cream slower and longer in the age-old tradition of fine European butters. You can substitute European Style butter for regular butter in recipes to get a bolder, richer flavor. European style butter produces flakier pastries, smoother sauces and more savory dishes and is a preferred ingredient among many professional chefs.

Wow, I didn't realize that butter can taste differently in other countries but I guess it would make sense since most things vary in taste depending upon what country you are visiting.

    Taster's Choice has some great butters that are available and it may see, a rather long name, many chefs were able to take part in a blink taste test concerning European butters.
