The term "butter" refers to the thick, soft consistency, and its use as a spread for breads. Typically seasoned with cinnamon, cloves, and other spices, apple butter may be us

Clarified butter is butter that has been rendered to separate the milk solids and water from the butter fat. Typically it is produced by melting butter and allowing the different components to separate by density. Some solids float to the surface and are skimmed off; the water and the remainder of the milk solids sink to the bottom and are left behind when the butter fat is poured off. The non-butter fat components are discarded. Clarified butter has a higher smoke point than regular butter, and is therefore preferred in some c ...

A butter churn is a mechanical device used to agitate milk cream until it becomes butter. Churning the cream brings its fat globules together and causes them to clump into lumps of butter. Many configurations of churns were used throughout history. The end-over-end churn stands about 4 feet high and swings on a central axle. The "barrel churn" was similar but rolled on its long axis. The Scottish churn (shown at right) is harder work than the end over end or barrel churn. A plunger or dasher has to be moved vigorously up

In physics, the Plum pudding model of the atom was made after the discovery of the electron and was proposed by the discoverer of the electron, J. J. Thomson. The model, however, preceded the discovery of the proton or neutron. In it, the atom is envisioned as electrons surrounded by a soup of positive charge, like plums surrounded by pudding. The electrons were positioned uniformly throughout the atom. Instead of a soup, the model is also said to have had a cloud of positive charge. This model was disproved by an experiment by Ernest Rutherford, the gold foi
