Homemade butter

Ingredients:

• 2.5 cups heavy cream
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt
• Ground black pepper

Preparation:

1. Prepare a medium bowl with ice water. In the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, gradually beat the heavy cream and sour cream. Increase the mixer speed to high and continue beating until the cream separates and the mixture thickens.
2. Using a silicone spatula, scrape the butter from the edges of the bowl. Whisking will release some liquid. This liquid is buttermilk. Gather the butter into a ball and place it in a double layer of cheesecloth or a thin kitchen towel. Dip it in ice water to remove any buttermilk from the surface. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
   
   Place the butter in a bowl and roll it into a ball or sausage shape using cling film. Use immediately or store in the refrigerator.
