Why use butter and olive oil together?

When used in cooking, both butter and olive oil help carry the flavors of the food, and warming them accentuates this property. Butter is smooth and creamy, adding a dairy richness that no oil can match. Olive oil provides a unique flavor and aroma. Together, they enhance the flavor of your foods.

I’m so excited to tell you about a new product we’ve developed for you – Land O Lakes® Butter with Olive Oil & Sea Salt. It’s wonderful to use in your cooking and baking recipes and for spreading on your favorite bread or topping warm vegetables. We’ve combined our tasty butter with the goodness of olive oil and sea salt to naturally enhance the flavor of your favorite foods. Butter with Olive Oil & Sea Salt will give your recipes a depth and richness you’ll love, and it complements any dish in a way that oil alone just can’t. The cooking methods used by chefs were our inspiration for this product. Have you ever watched a cooking show where the chef uses both butter and olive oil in cooking, or wondered why a recipe sometimes calls for one or the other — or even both together? Olive oil and butter each contribute something different in cooking, and a lot of it has to do with flavor. When used in cooking, both butter and olive oil help carry the flavors of the food, and warming them accentuates this property. Butter is smooth and creamy, adding a dairy richness that no oil can match. Olive oil provides a unique flavor and aroma. Together, they enhance the flavor of your foods. I’ve got to tell you, since I’ve been working as the manager for butters and spreads here at Land O'Lakes, I’ve learned a thing or two about when to add butter in a recipe where I may have only used an oil in the past. For instance, when I used to make quesadillas, I always used a nonstick cooking spray or light olive oil; but have you ever tried buttering your tortillas when making quesadillas instead of using just oil? Oh my! Try it with our Butter with Olive Oil & Sea Salt. You won’t believe how brown and crisp your quesadillas get, and the taste is amazing. I love the collection of recipes we developed for Butter with Olive Oil & Sea Salt. Try one of the recipes, such as the Thai Peanut Chicken Wrap, or use this tasty new product in your favorite recipes and let me know what you think!

Why add butter at end of sauce?

Why add butter? Its richness cuts through the acidity of the tomatoes resulting in a sauce so creamy and velvety, you might've assumed there was heavy cream if you didn't know better.

This content is imported from youTube. You may be able to find the same content in another format, or you may be able to find more information, at their web site. Before you lecture me about how butter does not belong in marinara, hear me out. Marcella Hazan, Julia Child of Italian cooking, used it. So did I, and so can you. Why add butter? Its richness cuts through the acidity of the tomatoes resulting in a sauce so creamy and velvety, you might've assumed there was heavy cream if you didn't know better.

What makes Marcella's technique so genius is the simplicity of it. She didn't even bother to chop the onion, she just sliced it in half and threw the whole thing in the pot. I finely chopped mine, along with some minced garlic, to reduce the amount of simmering time. But that's almost beside the point; The key to everything is the butter. Add a half stick to the pot and BOOM! You've just made a sauce to write home about.

Chelsea Lupkin

It may be September, but killer juicy tomatoes are still around. Take advantage and make this sauce! Don't worry about removing the skins or picking through all the seeds. Let's just call this a rustic spaghetti. If the tomatoes are good, the marinara will be too.
