Thank you everyone for your nice comments! I&#39;m happy you didn&#39;t gave up on me after such long radio silence! :) <br /><br />@Valeria, @Elena - you can use your normal fresh cream. The fat content should be the same as in British double cream. Double cream has usually fat content between 38-50%.

Such an inspirational post, amazing pictures, congratulations! I must try home made butter, but what can I use instead of double cream butter that we don&#39;t have in Italy?

I&#39;ve made homemade butter a few times in the food processor--it seems to take longer than I&#39;d expect so I have been hesitant to try by hand. On the other hand, it looks like a lot fewer dishes to clean up. Maybe when my boys get a little older I can enlist their aid as I can imagine my arm getting tired already! Love the photos--as always.

how great --you really just need a jar! Just one question: what&#39;s the fat content of double crem? I want to find out what it corresponds to here in Italy. Thanks.

My mom used to make butter and ghee at home. I am so tempted to try this at home!

I read the story finding out the secret ingredient...<br />At first time it looks like it is just double cream.<br />But second time I found it out: ARMS!<br />;-)<br /><br />Thanks for the simple recipe and the beautiful pics from Firenze!

Gorgeous photos. As a child I would make the butter for the family table with the shake the jar method. Now I use my Thermomix. I don&#39;t get a good arm workout though. I&#39;m now experimenting with making cultured butter.It makes a slightly more complex butter. I haven&#39;t perfected it yet but I think I&#39;m nearly there.

Yum! I love how you essentially workout to get butter :) Justification!! <br /> Have you tried making butter from cultured cream? Apparently you can use creme fraiche or leave your cream out for 8hrs or so (says Nourished Traditions). I haven&#39;t tried making it, but love the flavour!

Beautiful, Sarka!<br />I&#39;ve been meaning to make my own butter for some time now!<br />Keep motivated!<br />x

I&#39;d never thought about making my own butter before, but your pictures look so great that I&#39;m going to give it a try!

Great post, wonderful photos, Sari! Welcome back! I always look forward to reading your new posts. <br /><br />I also loved the sandwich post at Juls&#39; blog. I commented it that I&#39;m vegetarian but I would have eaten that sandwich with you, guys, at the beach! :)

I definitely know what you mean by being lost in the middle of busy days, time moving fast and lack of inspiration. Going back to basics is for sure a good idea! I have really missed your posts, and I&#39;m glad to see you back here! What a lovely set of photos - really made me want to try it myself. I&#39;ve never made butter, and now I&#39;m wondering why not!

Amazing photos of what I imagine is a difficult subject to make photogenic!
