There is an opinion that butter with a fat content of 82.5% is of better quality than butter with a fat content of 72.5%.

However, this is not entirely true. We tell you how things really are.

Which oil to take: 82.5% or 72.5%

Traditional butter (82.5%) and peasant butter (72.5%) differ only in the amount of fat in the composition.

The quality of butter does not depend on the percentage of fat. Butter with a fat content of 82.5% may be of poor quality, while butter with a fat content of 72.5% may be of good quality, and vice versa.

However, butter with a fat content of 82.5% tends to have a richer flavor.
