Minerva, Ohio-based Minerva Dairy has created two limited-edition butter flavors available through Goldbelly for nationwide shipping and at Kishman’s IGA, located a brief walk from the Minerva Dairy Creamery in northeast Ohio.
The Everything Bagel Butter is a blend of sea salt, minced onions and garlic, black and white sesame seeds, and poppy seeds. The Lemon Poppy Seed Butter has a touch of lemon sweetness and the nutty flavor of poppy seeds.
“You just can’t seem to stop eating blueberry muffins when they’re made with our Lemon Poppy Seed Butter,” said Venae Watts, Minerva Dairy fifth-generation co-owner. “And for the Everything Bagel Butter, all I can say is: Lather that bird with Everything Bagel Butter, and do not hold back! Chicken, turkey, or capon — I don’t think I ever want to eat a bird cooked any other way.”
While Everything Bagel Butter and Lemon Poppy Seed Butter are available primarily via Goldbelly, Watts challenges any grocery retailer to ask her to come up with a unique flavor for their location: [email protected]. “I love a challenge,” she said, “especially a butter one.”
Minerva Dairy claims that it doesn’t just make butter — the company eats, sleeps and dreams butter. The dairy company claims to still be living by Grandma Lorraine’s adage: “There’s not much in life that can’t be made better with butter.”
