About Goat butter

Goat butter is butter made from goat's milk. It is a spreadable dairy fat whose colour, firmness, and flavour can vary with the milk and its handling; it may have a tangier or more pronounced dairy flavour than some cow's-milk butters.

It is used for spreading, cooking, and baking in much the same ways as other butter. It may be sold salted or unsalted, and texture varies with temperature and production. The name identifies the milk source but does not specify salt content or whether the butter has been cultured.
