Your Complete Guide to the Different Types of Butterhttps://www.tasteofhome.com/article/your-complete-guide-to-butter/Is there a real difference between Grade AA and Grade A?
Established by the USDA, butter grades are assigned based on flavor, body, color and salt. Grades AA and A are typically found in grocery stores, while Grade B butter is more often found in industrial settings. Here’s the breakdown:
Grade AA butter is the highest grade and “possesses a fine and highly pleasing butter flavor.” It’s smooth, creamy, easy to spread and made of high-quality cream.
Grade A butter features “a pleasing and desirable butter flavor.” That means it may have a stronger flavor and is slightly coarser than Grade AA.
Grade B butter “possesses a fairly pleasing butter flavor,” isn’t as fresh and can be crumbly or sticky.
