1865 - Butter coloring
Lodewijk records his recipe for butter coloring.
“Take the reddest carrots possible, wash them, and shred them with a knife, not using the top. Take fresh, still warm milk, and place the shredded carrots in it, stir and sieve it through a linen cloth to strain it, add to the butter, and beat it. One shredded carrot is sufficient for one kilo of butter.”
