This traditional French butter is a P.D.O. or Protected Denomination of Origin product made in Isigny-sur-mer, France. Isigny Ste Mère Salted Butter has been celebrated and utilized by the French culinary world for over 400 years because of its lush, creamy texture and complex profile that combines notes of sea salt and sweet milk. It is the slow maturing process that allows the cream to develop all its aromas and sensory qualities. It is left to rest for 16 to 18 hours, then churned respecting traditional methods to ensure the formation of beautiful non-uniform and meltingly soft butter grains. Enjoy this rich delicacy slathered over a piece of crusty French bread with a drizzle of Honey or a dollop of Strawberry Jam.
Isigny Sainte-Mère is a dairy cooperative in France, established in 1909 by dairy owners from the village of Sainte-Mère-Église. The cooperative was created to enhance the value of local milk and has since become known for its high-quality dairy products, including butter, cream, and cheeses like Mimolette and Camembert. In 1980, the cooperative merged with the Isigny-sur-Mer dairy, and in 2000, it unified with the Dupont d'Isigny cooperative, forming the current entity known as Isigny Sainte-Mère. The cooperative is celebrated for its commitment to artisanal methods and the unique terroir of Normandy, contributing to its reputation as a symbol of quality dairy production in France.
