One percent seaweed from the Finistère region is enough to provide the iodine-rich taste of the coast, which is supported by the cream and salt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"speakable-definition\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeaweed churned butter\u003c\/strong\u003e is France's most famous \u003cstrong\u003eseaweed butter\u003c\/strong\u003e and the first variety that Maison Bordier ever flavored. One percent seaweed is enough for the butter to taste of low tide and wet rock, with the cream carrying that note throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSalty and fresh on dark bread\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you slice it, you see fine green and reddish specks in the pale yellow, distributed evenly like pepper in a terrine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a slice of dark bread, it tastes of cream and the sea, similar to the water in a freshly opened oyster. It is salty, robust, and fresh. With 3.2 grams of salt per 100 grams, this variety is one of the more robust in the range, which helps carry the taste of the sea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWith oysters, fish, and warm bread\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEverything that comes from the sea pairs well with this butter because it speaks the same language.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClassically, it is served with a slice of dark bread and alongside oysters. For steamed fish, scallops, and shellfish, it should be allowed to melt directly on the plate, and over hot potatoes, it leaves a film that smells of the coast. A tin of \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/sardinen\"\u003esardines in olive oil\u003c\/a\u003e also becomes a complete dinner with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is most potent when raw, which is why it should be added at the end rather than into the pan. Those who prefer something more lemony can place the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/bordier-fassbutter-mit-zitrone-125g\"\u003elemon butter\u003c\/a\u003e alongside it, as acidity and iodine complement each other perfectly at the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce cut, the seaweed butter is best kept tightly wrapped in the coldest compartment of the fridge. At 4 degrees, it can be sliced cleanly; after about 20 minutes at room temperature, it becomes very soft, which is when it smells most clearly of the sea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA dinner with friends in 1986\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe seaweed butter was not created on a drawing board, but while cooking for friends, when the host himself kneaded seaweed into semi-salted butter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe guests were so impressed that the variety was added to the range and became the house’s first flavored butter. Everything that followed—from yuzu and onion to smoked salt—traces back to that one evening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe seaweed is harvested by fishermen in the Finistère, the westernmost tip of France, where the Atlantic reveals the rock twice a day. Red, green, and brown seaweed grow there in five months, allowing for two harvests a year.

Therefore, orders containing this product always incur higher shipping costs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe butter is quite soft, even when shipped chilled. Sometimes the paper it is wrapped in may become damp. This is known to Bordier, and the packaging has been deliberately left unchanged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSHELF LIFE:\u003c\/strong\u003e The butter has a shelf life of 10 - 14 days.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bordier Butter","offers":[{"title":"125 g","offer_id":53073464164686,"sku":"050FRO0005","price":7.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0905\/1124\/5646\/files\/Beurre-Bordier-Beurre-de-Barette-aux-Algues-vr.jpg?v=1751006119","url":"https:\/\/norgutes.com\/en\/products\/bordier-fassbutter-mit-algen-125g","provider":"nur Gutes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
