Jennifer Garner is known for being a Hollywood actress, but she also knows her way around the kitchen! She just came forward with an ingenious hack for softening butter that is going viral.
When it comes time to use butter for baking, softening it beforehand can be annoying. Some people try putting the butter in the hot oven or warming it up in the microwave, but this can turn disastrous quickly if the butter is left there too long.
Garner was making an episode of her Instagram cooking show, #PretendCookingShow when she realized that she had forgotten to leave the butter out to soften beforehand. She had planned to make Rose Beranbaum’s chocolate bread recipe from The Bread Bible, and she had gotten up at 5:30am to do so, but she forgot to leave the butter out the night before.
Taking matters into her own hand, Garner took out the butter and grabbed a cheese grater. She proceeded to grate stick of butter just like you would with cheese and add it to the bowl.
This is the perfect hack to deal with softening butter when time is an issue!
Garner’s video has since gone viral, with people all over the world being impressed with her hack. It looks like acting is far from the only skill this woman has!
