Can you leave the butter out in a butter dish?Yes, you can leave butter out in a butter dish,

but it is essential to follow guidelines to ensure its safety and quality.

According to the USDA, butter is safe at room temperature for one to two days.

However, if left out for several days, it can turn rancid and develop undesirable flavors.

To maintain quality and safety, use a butter dish with a lid or a butter bell to protect

the butter from contamination, dust, and light exposure.

Store the butter in a cool, dry area, away from direct sunlight or heat sources.

Regularly check the butter's appearance, texture, and smell for signs of spoilage.

For longer storage or in warmer climates, it's best to keep the butter refrigerated.
