Chilled Unsalted Butter DOP Échiré Sheet is a French butter produced from cow’s milk in the Charentes-Poitou region. Certified with DOP (Denominazione di Origine Protetta / AOP equivalent), it is presented in a 2kg sheet format, specifically designed for professional use. This butter is suited for pastry and laminated dough applications.

Detailed Information

Échiré butter is traditionally churned in wooden barrels, a method that contributes to its consistent texture and plasticity. The sheet format is engineered for lamination, offering even thickness and ease of incorporation into doughs such as croissant and puff pastry.
The texture is firm yet pliable when properly tempered, allowing for precise layering. The flavour profile is clean and delicate, with subtle cream notes due to the absence of salt, making it suitable for applications where flavour control is essential.
