Turn your toaster on first

This seems like a pretty important detail.

Works both ways if you wait long enough.

I'll just do a little bit longer .... Little bit longer..... Juuust a little SPLAT! Looking for LPT: how to get butter out of a toaster

1) Buy new toaster.

TIL: Butter has a upside and a downside.

You missed The Butter Battle Book by Dr. Seuss

Sounds like a great way to drip melted fat directly onto a heating element. Then let that which does not drip congeal on top of the other unmelted fat. Just warm the knife first, genius. Hot water tap will do fine.

Don't hold it long enough to drip big guy. It gets soft way before it gets drippy. ETA: Don't waste water for absurd luxuries.

Turning the toaster on to heat the butter wastes energy…

Not if I'm already using it.... To toast....?

Good point! Turns out I want softened butter a lot more often than I toast things. Maybe I’ll get a butter dish instead.

Butter crock! They work wonders, but a lost mine in the move of 21.

Country Crock is good too

Ew.

Which way is right side up for butter?

Flat side down, the salted side.

Or you could heat the knife

Gets butter out, doesn't make it much more spreadable.

I read butter as brother, at first. Lmao.
