There's usually a good brand on sale, so I mix it up getting whatever deals.

local market brands are good as well. Olive oil is in the mix as well for cooking, veggie oil is easiest though.

not really a fan of either. a small amount of butter on waffles or pancakes or whatever is nice, but I don't butter bread. would rather it eat plain than with a butter product

unsalted sticks of butter. brand doesn't matter so much

olive oil, too, but obviously it depends on the dish i'm cooking

i'd never use EvO for making scrambled eggs or omelets, for example

No why would you do that

I don't like unsalted butter. I like the super smooth, slightly cultured, salted European butter

Or margarine. I'm a real person

Well in reality I use butter, sunflower oil and olive oil when cooking.

Each have their own place and function for me.

These have alternate uses around the house too!
Sunflower oil - for fertilizing sun flowers
Olive oil - for cleaning the drain
Butter - face moisturizer and dog pomade

Thumbs up

if you use unsalted butter you can control the amount of salt in your food. i love salt and use a lot so i don't need it in my butter, too.

being able to control salt amount is especially good in baking where precision matters. anyone who wants to bake well should know that.

i was just making a dumb joke, but i totally agree w/ this.

no reason to ramp up the salt amounts in your food for no good reason like that. i much prefer using unaltered raw ingredients and then tweaking as necessary. and as you said it's twice as important in baking. man i miss baking.

I bake a lot and I find American recipes calling for unsalted butter and then salt further down the ingredient list a bit tedious.

Plus, salted butter makes all baking taste better IMO. I've used both and I use both but I'm disappointed every time I get unsalted butter.

But it might be because I grew up eating salted butter. In New Zealand we used to have these things call butter conditioners, in our fridges. They kept butter at the right temperature for spreading. The more you know!

Precisely. I'm so used to measuring salt in pinches that I just do it automatically in most recipes, if i'm using already salted ingredients it throws everything out of whack.

You can always add salt if there's not enough, you can't do anything if it's too salty.

Butter conditioner thing blew my mind though.

I always have to let butter sit for 5 minutes outside the fridge to reach optimal consistency (and then have to hurry cause it lasts maybe 1 or 2 minutes)
