Beyond Butter: 5 Creative Uses for Liquid Butter Alternative

What Is Liquid Butter Alternative?

Butter flavor. No melting. No mess. No dairy. If you’ve worked with our Liquid Butter Alternative before, you already know it’s a kitchen MVP. But beyond the usual sautéing and baking, this golden jug of goodness is more versatile than you might think.

Whether you’re feeding crowds, fine-tuning recipes, or just trying to make back-of-house life a little easier, here are five creative ways to put Liquid Butter Alternative to work in your kitchen.

1. Use Liquid Butter Alternative as a Basting Agent

There’s nothing chefs appreciate more than precision in the flavor department. Basting is the secret to locking in moisture and maximizing the taste of your dishes. Liquid butter alternative is perfect for this task, offering a rich, buttery flavor that enhances everything from poultry to roasted vegetables.

How to Use:

• Brush liquid butter alternative over turkey, chicken, or fish while roasting to keep proteins tender and juicy.
• Add aromatics such as fresh thyme, rosemary, or garlic to a basting brush infused with liquid butter alternative for additional depth of flavor.
• Use it to glaze roasted root veggies like carrots or parsnips during cooking for a beautiful sheen and intensified sweetness.

Pro Tip: Because it has a higher smoke point than regular butter, liquid butter alternative can withstand those long, high-temperature cooking sessions required for a crisp, golden browning effect.

2. Perfect for Sautéing Vegetables

Sautéing requires precision. Too much heat and you risk burning the butter; too little, and you fail to bring out flavors properly. Thanks to its stability and non-dairy composition, Liquid Butter Alternative handles even the hottest pans, making it perfect for sautéing vegetables. Plus, its subtle buttery flavor rounds out vegetable dishes beautifully.

How to Use:

• Start your sauté by heating liquid butter alternative in a skillet. Toss in sliced zucchini, bell peppers, mushrooms, or green beans for a quick side dish.
• Pair it with minced garlic and a sprinkle of crushed red pepper for a flavor-packed base to spice up simple veggies.
• Drizzle it over leafy greens like spinach or kale for a quick sauté that retains the greens’ vibrant color and nutrients.

Why It Works: Traditional butter can brown too quickly due to its milk solids. With Liquid Butter Alternative, you get all the smooth flavor without compromising cooking performance.

3. The Secret to Vegan Baking Perfection

Let’s be real… Most vegan swaps just don’t deliver that rich, buttery flavor we all love. But that’s exactly where Liquid Butter Alternative shines, especially in baking. With its creamy texture and smooth consistency, it does the job butter usually handles, like binding ingredients and locking in moisture. And the best part? It actually tastes like butter.

How to Use:

• Substitute an equal amount of liquid butter alternative in recipes for cookies, cakes, or pastries to maintain the desired texture while making them completely plant-based.
• Add it to your pie crust dough for flakiness without the use of animal-derived fats.
• Use it for greasing pans to ensure your baked goods release cleanly and effortlessly.

Pro Tip: Liquid Butter Alternative is free from the nine most common food allergens according to the FDA. While it does contain soybean oil, it has been refined to remove the protein that causes an allergic reaction.

4. Enhance Flavors Across a Variety of Dishes

Here’s where liquid butter alternative flexes its versatility. Think of it as an all-purpose flavor booster that rivals traditional butter. Whether you’re preparing comfort foods or upping your fine-dining game, this alternative complements a wide spectrum of cuisines.

How to Use:

• Drizzle it over popcorn instead of melted butter for a movie-night snack that delivers all the flavor without the hassle.
• Mix it into mashed potatoes, risottos, or grits to add buttery richness without making the dish overly heavy.
• Brush it over freshly baked bread, bagels, or croissants for a glossy finish and delectable flavor.

The beauty of Liquid Butter Alternative lies in its pre-seasoning with sea salt, meaning you can skip additional seasoning steps while still delivering a well-rounded flavor punch.

5. Use It in Sauces and Marinades

Sauces are the heart of any unforgettable menu. They tie flavors together and elevate dishes to gourmet status. Its liquid form eliminates the need for melting and allows it to mix seamlessly with other ingredients to create rich, flavorful combinations. Thanks to its seamless emulsifying properties, Liquid Butter Alternative works wonders in sauces and marinades. 

How to Use:

• Whisk it into a simple hollandaise, or Alfredo sauce to create a silky-smooth texture that clings perfectly to pasta or proteins.
• Combine it with soy sauce, honey, and garlic for a marinade that works wonders on tofu, meat, or veggies.
• Use it as the base in a brown-butter inspired sauce by lightly heating it.

Pro Tip: For a standout pasta dish, whisk Liquid Butter Alternative into hot, freshly drained pasta along with garlic, parsley, and a squeeze of lemon.
