Hi there, New to this site, seems very informative but I can't find the answer to my problem.
I'm making the 3rd lot of butter, the 1st. 2 went without hitch. The problem I have with this one is that I think Ive overcooked it. It was on the lowest heat ever but the water all evaporated and it all went black in the bottom of the pan. It doesn't smell burnt, just black. After straining whats left I'm left with this oily substance which looks like a dark thick olive oil which doesn't set. This has no smell at all.
Can anyone tell me if this is usable or is it a trip back to matey boy to get some more?
All answers are appreciated.
