Making Butter

   



We had a go at making butter out of cream. In the olden days they used to make it from the cream on top of the milk and churn it in a butter churn. We used a jar as our churn and we had to shake the jar really hard. We took a peek every so often to see how it had changed after so many shakes. At the end we poured off the whey and used the butter to spread on pikelets we made in the classroom. A real old fashioned treat.
