Turn Original Earth Balance into European style with a seven cent hack!
Let a 15 oz container of Original (or soy free) Earth Balance soften at room temperature on your counter for a couple of hours. You want it to be soft enough that you can mix in the lactic acid, but not at all melty.
Scrape the Earth Balance into a small mixing bowl.
Whisk together.
Scrape the mixture back into the container, then chill for several hours to harden.
