My Favourite Spread...

Who needs a Thermomix and the $1800 price tag when you have a 'Husband Deluxe'?








Organic lemons from my tree.

Now lemon butter is my favourite spread and I have a lemon tree. So 2009 being a year of trying new things and being frugal at the same time we decided to give making lemon butter a go. Why haven't we done this before?

20 minutes of whisking.

This is amazingly simple to make and the taste.....lush springs to mind. Heaven in a jar.








Made 3 baby jars of lemon butter. Just the right amount as it's preservative free, it won't keep for long. Although it is going to disappear pretty fast, as it's so good.
