Lurpak spreadable is not butter.

British butter is delicious and not imported. HTH

Butter dishes are for blocks of actual butter, to keep them at room temperature (and therefore spreadable) during the day. Some people keep their blocks of butter in the fridge, and put a section of it in the butter dish (especially in hot weather) so it can spread. This is what a butter dish is for, it's not meant to have a plastic tub dumped on it (where the contents are spreadable anyway therefore defeating the point).

Obviously do whatever you like, but there is definitely a Hyacinth Bucket element to plonking a plastic tub of spreadable butter in a butter dish. Just FYI!!

Surely it keeps it cleaner?

I dont find 'spreadable' butters or spreads are actually spreadable out of the fridge (and certainly not in the fridge) but that might be because we have a cold kitchen.

So I can understand why OP might want to put a tub in the dish

Obviously the op doesn't like the tub spoiling the look of the table if they've made an effort for everything to look nice.

Isn’t the point of a butter dish to have your butter at room temperature so it’s easy to spread? You therefore don’t need a butter dish for spreadable butter?
Why not just serve put the spreadable in a nice dish or plate if the tub offends you?

@BlossomOfOrange Real butter becomes spreadable if you keep it out of the fridge and in a butter dish 🧈

You need a butter dish. But not for spreadable. Only fir proper butter you leave out of the fridge. (and isn't processed !)

Lurpak is butter. Lurpak Spreadable is not ( well it's a butter/oil blend). And sorry, Lurpak or French butter any day over British butter. British butter tends to not be cultured, so - just no 😜

Wish mine would. My kitchen must be cold because the butter is sat on the side and still not soft enough
I say on the side, it's in the microwave at the minute so the cat can't indulge himself

I have a le creuset one but it's not as big as the large lurpack tub.

Make your own butter, tastes x1000 better.

I'm not 80.

Dont you love those little cat tongue marks!!!

I would buy someth My like a heart shaped dish and decant a bit into it

TKmaxx would do the trick for something suitable

Not wanting people to see the lurpack spreadable packet is very Hyacinth Bouquet.

You want proper butter and a butter dish. I'm not 80, I'm in my 40s!

Which butter do you use? X

I thought Lakeland used to do such a thing (but definitely get real butter anyway)

@SallySailor , You've not tried many British ones then.

I've got a good Lakeland one that keeps butter at the right temperature and can fit a full block in it

I like salty butter so either Kerrygold or the M&S French one with the salt crystals.

As a rule, high quality Continental butter isn’t salty enough for me in the way that Irish style butter is but I do like that M&S one from Ocado. I think some Tescos also do a very nice, very salty French one too but I’ve only seen it occasionally.

Got a goody bag from somewhere, think it might have been a camping and caravan show and there was a tub for dairy spred/margarine in it. It was like an upside down butter dish so the deep bit at the bottom and a flat lid on top. I use butter so it was sent to the charity shop. So the op is perfectly right in thinking there is something she can buy.

@bellac11
Thank you!! I didn't realise such a thing existed or that I needed one 😂

I think posters are talking about butter dishes that bitter sits on plate with cover over rather which would be rather like a tureen for lurpak tub. I have seen margarine dishes that while tub goes in.... The Lakeland blurb for this out of stock one even says plastic dishes aren't the prettiest things for the table

Thank you very much @WishIdDoneItYearsAgo I've been looking for recommendations 😊

Loving the responses, some v helpful, thank you
