A worthy saving tip considering the price of butter
We are all feeling the pinch when it comes to shopping for our basic household amenities, so why not try this homemade saving hack that could save you some Rands?
South Africans and people all over the world are feeling the pinch when it comes to the cost of living.
And that's with living a very basic lifestyle.
When we saw this TikToker, Tammy Rudolph, sharing some valuable tips on how to save money, we were convinced that this was exactly what our community needed.
Tammy decided to share some of her savings tips on TikTok to help people with the rising costs of staple items.
It is anything but satisfying to visit the grocery store and then find that things have escalated in price and the quantity is still the same.
This is something that many people are struggling with, so, her tips provide a more cost-effective approach to cooking without a lack of flavour.
The first tip that we decided to share with you all is her recipe for making homemade butter.
And what shocked us the most here was how easy it is. We have seen other TikTokers outside of South Africa sharing this before, but seeing someone from home do it brings an overarching layer of truth to it being real.

Now, we enjoyed how she was resourceful and used whipping cream to make melt-on-your-toast butter, but people questioned whether this was in fact a saving tip or not.
This after they worked out the cost of whipping cream to be somewhat pricey.
But this is how we took it: firstly, if for whatever reason you didn't have butter at home, this would serve as an alternative. Secondly, if you've got the whipping cream on special or perhaps it went off, then you could repurpose it to make some butter.
Plus, it is not about the amount of butter that she got from a 500ml bottle of whipping cream but the fact that she repurposed one item, the whipping cream, into two items (buttermilk and butter).
