Emile Henry Butter Pot, Figue Review

Emile Henry Butter Pot, Figue
Average Reviews:

Emile Henry Auberge butter pots are the perfect addition to your breakfast table or afternoon tea. This glazed ceramic crock is a time-tested design, and keeps your butter fresh, cool and spreadable thanks to a reservoir of cold water that you replenish every few days (the water creates an airtight seal). It holds 8 oz. (one cup) of butter, plenty to satisfy the whole family at mealtimes. No more rock-hard pats of butter when your toast or rolls are ready! Plus, this new color (figue) coordinates beautifully with Fiestaware's heather dishes.

Emile Henry Butter Pot, Cerise Review

The Emile Henry butter keeper is particularly well-designed. Its "Bell" stores almost 8 oz of butter and is inverted, unlike most others, so the butter is far less likely to slide out - unless room temperatures are excessive.
These butter keepers certainly do a good job of keeping butter at room temperature and therefore nicely spreadable. I cannot confirm how long they prevent spoilage, but it would be far longer than the butter remains uneaten in this household. I do remember that my "fridgeless" great-grandmother used one back in the 1950's and never wasted her butter because of spoilage.
I prefer to leave the butter on the kitchen counter to come to room temperature. (It is far too easy to overheat it in the microwave, resulting in inferior texture.) Two sticks will completely fill the keeper leaving enough extra for about one piece of toast.
This is a replacement I ordered (same item, direct from Amazon.com) and has the perfect glaze quality I expect from this manufacturer, unlike the previous white one, which I (over-generously) gave 3 stars.

Le Creuset Stoneware Butter Crock, Cobalt Review

This crock actually works. You'll have room temperature butter anytime you want it. It holds about 1 and 1/2 sticks of butter. Just bring the butter to room temperature, pack it tightly in the upside-down cup, fill the base with a little water, and your butter will stay fresh and at room temperature. Although the instructions suggest changing the water every 3-4 days, I find that I only need to change it about once every 10 days or so. When using the butter, be careful to remove it evenly from the top working your way down. If you take too much from one side, the glob of butter will end up sliding out of the cup and down into the water when you pull out the cup. When the cup is full of butter, you'll have some water clinging to its surface, but blotting with a paper towel will easily solve that problem.

BUTTER KEEPER with Measure Grid Review

BUTTER KEEPER with Measure Grid

I like this butter dish. It fits inside the compartment in our refrigerator door and I like that it's clear and you can see the butter stick inside it. The measuring marks can be handy at times, too. The lid fits nice and snug so you can lift the dish by the lid and it won't come off. The only thing to comment on is that the bottom, where the butter stick sits, is flat, i.e. no ridge or well to hold the stick in place. So, the butter stick can slide a little on the surface and if you're a bit messy with the butter, the butter can get off the edge of the dish a bit. But, that has not been a problem for us, as we don't see it getting messy enough to matter, and we don't leave our butter sitting out where it could begin to melt and try to run off the bottom. So, we recommend this butter dish as a good one to try if you're in the market for such a thing! We like ours!
