Mr. Editor, a few hints on the processof catkin and preserving it. 1 -1 r, The art of making butter consists in,saparatingt,. with 'lain and neatness, • the oil from: the serum , and curd with which it is combined in the and of seasoningit to suit the palate; The an • of preserving gOod butter lies in so keeping it es to have at retain its rich s i let, flavor. j The ben method I know of and these objects, is e braced .in the following rules: 1. In the first place, see that your COMISTO sop. plied with a plenty of nutritious focid. This 4 the TOW material from which butter it•rnade: unless :his is good and abundant, the eriannfecter. ed article wall be scanty and poor. J 1 2. Let the milk beset in shallow; broad pan , of wooden, tin, or atone earthenware; to facilitans the separation of the cream, - in a coo‘elean spar meet. Red-glazed earthenware is bad 1. sad le4l is often poisonous. I think the beat tempered is about fifty degrees of Fahrenheit. 3. Let the cream or milk be churned before it has become rancid or batter, as at this stage it h lost its finest qualities for butter. -1 - 4. The operation of churning should be meti er/Rely and regularly performed. If tod slow, and at intervals only, the separation is tedious and on. certain. If violent, the cream is too much heated,, and yields a White insipid buttir. - • 5. Put no water with our cream nor with pier milk. The flavor, I they say, aroma, which giver the butter its high value, is extremely volatile, is disengaged by heat and materially dissipated by water, Work the butter thoroughly with the butter ladle in a wooden bowl, which mke be s ic in water to cool the mass: and while this opera tion is being completed, MIX pure; fine salt enough with the butter to season it for the table; and set it by in the bowl in a cool cellar till the next day which time the salt will be completely dimwit. ed,Twhen it is to be thoroughly incorporated by again working the butter with the wooden ladle until every particle of liquid is expelled. The making process is completed. To pre. serve the rich flavor which this process tweeter, pack the butter nicely down in a perfectly tight sweet vessel, and 4 none is better than a stone earthe ea jar, withobt a - particle of additional salt smooth the surface, end cover the top two inches with a strong cold brine, which has - been made by boiling and skimming the mclaiials. If , a pellicle or scum . UM is seen to rise upon the turn off the liquid and replace it by fresh _pickle. • • ' I am'accustomed 'to eat buttor of May, itine• and October, made and preserved in this 'way, when it is from six to taielve months old, without perceiving any material difference between it end that which is fresh made. • . MV.loto to make AfTle:Bulier.—You erpren awish to know bust the best apple-butter can be made, endue I conside:r myself a //fait at that lin siness, I have great plleasure in sending such di. rections as I believe to be the best: - —' The large copper kettle, three-quarters full of new sweet cider, made from sound apples, is set over the fire before five o'clock' in the morning. I let it boil two hours, and then put iu ad may apples, which were peeled, cored and cut up the night before, as will fill the kettle, and at tie same time I thmw in about two quarts of 'nicely cleaned peach-stones, which, by sinking to the bottom and being moved about incessantly by. the stirrer, prevent the fruit from Ailing and . bar• Mug.. which would spoil the whole , I take care in selecting the apples to secure,a large prirpor: tion of sour ones ; .for, rel..the cideris sweet, ea. less this precaution he taken„the sauce Will haw • a.vapid taste that nothing can remove: and all the apples must be of kinds that will boil easy to a jelly. On the hearth, around the fire, I place rinmeruus pans and pots of apples and cider, simmering mid stewing, which I empty Into the kettle es fast injsuccession as the contents boil away enough to make room for them ; but after twelve o'clock I never allow any. more toht: ad ded to the Mass. - The boiling must be coatis. ued steadily until the whole is ,reduced td a sniooth, thick, marmalade, of a dark, rich brown color, and no cider separates when a small „por tion is.cooled for trial: From the moment the first apples are put into the boiling *cider, the whole mast be stirred without a moment's intermission, otherwise it will settle and burn; but the handle of the stirrer must be passed from hand to band as often as fa tigue or inclination makes a change desirable. Sly kettle bolds a half a barrel of cider, which, With the first apples in it, begins to .boil about nine o'clock in the morning, and the whole is dune enough .• by, eight o'clock ,in the evening, when a sutlicient - quantity of powdered allspice, cloves and cinnamon may be added to season it to your taste The apple-butter must be dipped out as soon aspelsible when it stops boiling ; if it cools in the copper' or brass, it is in danger of becoming poisonous, as may be detectal even by the unpleasant taste imparted by the action of the acid upon the copper. - I prefer sweet stone or earthenware pots to keep it in, but where the quantity made is eery large, a barrel may be employed. . • .
