During mixing and salting the butter loses water, it is said to cry, which gives it taste qualities and a great complexity of aromas, but also a silky texture.
The butter is then shaped by hand, tapped using paddles to form lumps, wafers, or even “tailor-made” mini-butters for great chefs who choose the salting rate, the recipe. , shape and weight.
