How to store butter?
Probably the first place that comes to mind with cold and no light is the refrigerator. Butter should be stored in the refrigerator only if the temperature in the kitchen exceeds 20C - otherwise you may or may not need it. Butter stays fresh for up to 7 days if stored at room temperature. If you don't like cutting hard cubes of frozen butter and prefer its soft texture, a ceramic butter dish standing on the counter is ideal. It is also a good idea to cut off a small portion of the butter (for example, butter for two days), put it in the butter dish, and put the remaining cubes in the refrigerator. Keep butter stored in the refrigerator in its original packaging, and place it at the back of the refrigerator (away from the door) so it doesn't absorb other smells.
