A few years ago, I read that freezing butter destroyed some of the nutrition. I decided I would investigate. What I found was an article from ncbi.nlm.nih.gov. When you go to the ARTICLE, you can see what the alphabet soup means. Hint--National Library of Medicine and National Institute of Health. Plus, ".gov" makes me trust the information.
No. Refrigeration or freezing will not diminish the nutrition of butter. However, how you store it is crucial to taste. You cannot just toss the butter in the refrigerator or freezer. It needs to be airtight. I plan to freeze mine in foil and put it inside a freezer bag.
To the right of the abstract are several articles about butter. Since this is just an abstract, there is more in the article. But, I cannot access that. Can you?
Now, if you find articles from credible institutions stating that freezing butter is detrimental to the nutritional value of butter, feel free to post it in a comment.
Your turn
Do you freeze butter? Can you tell if butter has changed once it is thawed? If so, how did you wrap it to freeze it?
