Words from The French Pantry

We selected Bordier butter for many reasons.

The first is that it comes from Brittany, where are from.

The second, because it's commonly known as the best butter in the world, making it a must-have for chefs.

The milk that Maison Bordier uses comes exclusively from human-scale farms producing organic (preservative free and grass fed) milk within 60 miles of the processing workshop, between Brittany, Normandy and Pays de la Loire. It takes 12 times longer to make than regular butter.

Jean-Yves Bordier is the only craftsman who continues to employ the age-old technique of working churned butter in a wooden barrel and hand-blending it with delicate sea salt. In this process of kneading and salting, known endearingly as "crying," the butter releases water, which intensifies its taste, deepens its complexity, and results in a creamy texture.

Words from Bordier

Encounter with an Espelette producer, 2008

The spicy and colourful note of Espelette pepper reveals the flavour of salted butter. Ideal mixed with mashed potatoes, placed on a rib of beef cooked on the grill, in a fish foil or on your red mullet fillets. It can surprise you in your little chocolate fondants.
