Here's a tried-and-true way to keep your butter soft and spreadable. Originating in the late 1800s in the French countryside, this method involves adding water to the base of the keeper to create an airtight seal that keeps butter cool and fresh. Handmade in the USA by Nonneta's Keramika, this stylish ceramic butter crock has earthy good looks for days!

At Modern Prairie, it's no secret we love our butter. We're keeping this wheel-thrown stoneware full of spreadable gold front-and-center on our countertops, (and close to the toaster, of course)!

Ready to embrace the magic of the butter crock? We've got a few tips for you:

Start by adding a bit of water to the bottom of the keeper—the water should touch the top of your butter when you put the lid on.
Add enough room-temperature butter to the top so that it is full, but not overflowing (about 3/4 to 1 stick of butter should do).
Don't forget to change the water in your dish every 2 to 3 days. That way, your golden goodness can stay fresh-as-can-be at room temp for about a week.
Oh, and pro tip: If your butter begins to soften too much, don’t fret! Just pop it in the fridge until it’s that just-right texture
