"Garten shared that she generally had toast and coffee for breakfast, but the toast had to be slathered with good French butter made with shaved sea salt. "It's called Beurre de Baratte with flaked sea salt," Garten specified. "And it's just so delicious." This French butter packs a walloping 82% fat content, but it's been revered as some of the best butter that is made. This particular butter has achieved something of a cult status among gourmands."
"The butter is churned, just like in the old days, and it can be a pricey purchase, typically costing at least $12 for a half pound of the stuff. Hailing from Normandy and wrapped in foil, the color of Beurre de Baratte butter is a darker yellow when compared to other kinds of butter, and the taste can be umami-forward, nutty, and just the right touch of salty."
Ina Garten typically has toast and coffee for breakfast, spreading high-quality French butter flavored with shaved sea salt. The butter is Beurre de Baratte, a slow-churned Normandy butter with about 82% fat and flaked Atlantic sea salt that yields umami-forward, nutty, and slightly salty notes. The butter is traditionally churned, prized by gourmands, and often costs at least $12 for a half pound. At 10:30 a.m. she drinks tea sweetened with honey. For lunch she favors bowls of soup, often pre-made and frozen to be reheated, such as Italian wedding soup. After long recipe-testing days she sometimes orders from restaurants or goes out.
