Paderno Butter Paddles
This set of two birch wood butter paddles are each covered with narrow ridges on one side. Designed originally for use in butter making, the deep grooves are essential for removing excess buttermilk ensuring your homemade butter is fresh as possible. They will also create decoratively ridged butter balls by placing a small lump of cold butter between the two paddles and rubbing together in a circular motion. Paddles prevent butter from melting from the heat of your hands. The paddles are also used by pastry chefs to create decorative patterns in various foods and desserts. Great also for making gnocchi as the ridges in the dough help the pasta hold the sauce.
- Paddles are 2 inches wide and 8.5 inches long. Since the wood is unbleached and untreated, the paddles will darken to a golden hue as the fats from the butter enrich the surface. Made in Slovenia.
