    is said that if they don't they will bring the butter with them.
    The butter is lifted with a scoop. Then it is put into a butter dish and washed with spring water until the water runs clear and that will show that all the butter milk is washed out of it.
    Then fine salt is shaken in on it and it is mixed. Then it is washed again and made into a roll.
