Do you refrigerate your butter or leave it out?

SSIA...

Also what region of the US are you from if you leave it out? I have a theory but don't want to jump to conclusions

    Refrigerate; from the Northeast. It always grossed me out when I went to someone else's house and it was left out on the counter.

    Leave it out unless my apartment gets so hot that it starts to deform.

    From the midwest.

    Refrigerate only because I forget to put it in the glass case. I always use room temp butter for baking though.

    Refrigerate. There's a reason it's in the refrigerated section of the store. If you need it room temp, take it out prior to using it for 30 minutes.

    Re: Do you refrigerate your butter or leave it out?

    I keep the usual 4 pack in the fridge, a backup 4 pack in the freezer, and then one stick out on the butter dish. It is appropriately softer and more spreadable for things like toast, and does not require the heat of said toast just to melt. I certainly wouldn't call it "room temperature".

    Only time I wouldn't have the one stick out is if were summertime and hot, but haven't had that problem in the apartment, which is cool even if it's 90 outside.

    I am from the Midwest.

    Since the last thread about this, I have changed my ways. I melt butter in the micro and then put it into a squirt jar and then leave it out. Game changer.

    My ex used to leave butter out all the time. And eggs. It was fucking weird. I had never seen anyone do that before her.

    Fridge -- You know where I live.



    I have nothing against leaving it out. It's just not how I roll. I don't spread butter much; if I'm using it I'm usually cooking with it so it doesn't need to be tepid. Cold butter melts just fine.
