Butter tips please

If I'm making butter from a 600ml container of cream, how much salt should I add?

My son and I made butter on the first day we had the thermomix but I wasn't keen on the unsalted taste. Then I added salt and it was too much! (Wasn't wasted... I needed butter to baste the Christmas turkey so I used this one!)

How much salt?

I don't add salt to my butter but I would just start with a little amount and taste it until you get the right flavour and note how much so you can just put it in next time.

I would start out with 1 teaspoon of salt - doesn't sound like much I know, but diary carries the flavour and it does with salt. You can always add more and like Meagan said, make sure you keep track of how much you add so you know for next time

Thanks! I've got some cream past it's use-by and we have MORE than enough icecream in the freezer so I'll give it a go.
Cooking plum jam at the moment, so it'll have to wait!
