Portuguese Butter: Why the Difference?
Butter Makes the Difference
In traditional Portuguese pastry, national butter is an irreplaceable ingredient.
Unique Characteristics
Portuguese butter has a fat content of 82-84%, ideal for pastry. Its slightly salty flavor and nutty notes complement sweet recipes.
Artisanal Production
Many national producers still maintain traditional methods, with cows fed on natural pasture. This is reflected in the flavor and yellowish color of the butter.
