The other day, I stopped by at KALDI somewhere in Tokyo and found something called "milk-eating milk dairy my smoked butter". The price is 324 yen (tax included). I've eaten smoked cheese, but I've never experienced smoked butter. I was curious, so I decided to try it!

Finally the butter is smoked!

The seller is "Marin Food". It seems that "apple chips" are used for smoking chips. When you open the box, you will find eight individually wrapped butter inside.

When I took out one and opened the package, it was there that looked no different from the usual butter. Just because it's smoked doesn't mean it's brownish.

You can't tell the difference unless you try this! So, I baked bread and put butter on a hot toast with a colon.

It melts, it melts ~
It melts, it melts ~

When the butter melts slowly with the heat of the toast, it's ready to eat. When I cut it into pieces and bring it to my mouth ... Before I put it on my cheeks, there was an indescribable fragrant scent that had already been smoked! What a mellow scent !!

When you bite into it with fullness, the richness and umami of butter and the deep smoked scent spread throughout your mouth. This is a new sensation! Especially, the place where the butter soaks into the bread dough and is moist is irresistibly delicious.

I want to recommend it to smoke lovers with all my strength!

The author of smoked beginners didn't really understand the sweetness of "apple chips", but I think it's a little fruity. Anyway, the fragrance is more than you can imagine! By the way, it feels delicious to eat as it is, just like cheese. It seems to go well with wine.

Just putting smoked butter on it will change your usual toast so dramatically ... It looks like you'll be in the top 3 surprised ingredients in 2015. If you're getting tired of regular toast, or if you like smoke, give it a try. In addition, since it is a big deal, we recommend that you put 2 or 3 butters luxuriously and stick to the spots as much as you want!

Maybe your usual breakfast will be a little extravagant?
