7. CHEF’S NOTES: Usíng softened butter, and not just room temperature butter, ís ímportant for the process of makíng smooth curd. Soften (not melt) butter ín the mícrowave for 8-10 seconds. Because heat dístríbutíon can vary greatly on dífferent cooktops, go by the temperature and thíckness of the curd when cookíng on the stove ínstead of solely relyíng on suggested tímes.
8. Fíníshed curd wíll keep ín the refrígerator for up to 1 month.
