This little crock solves it: you press soft butter up into the lid, then set it into a base with a bit of water. The water forms a seal around the rim, keeping air away from the butter, so it stays fresh and spreadable right on the counter — no fridge needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow often should I change the water, and how do I stop it from getting moldy?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nRegularly — and I like to add a pinch of salt to the water, since salt acts as a natural preservative and keeps bacteria from building up. Between the salt and fresh water, mold really isn't something you need to worry about.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it safe to leave butter out at room temperature in this dish?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes.
