Tasting Brittany’s Iconic Seaweed Butter
What’s France without the baguette? And what’s a baguette without creamy, decadent butter? Well, in the northern region of France in an area called Brittany, Jean-Yves Bordier does butter one bit better. Using three different types of seaweed, Bordier’s butter brings a special salty earthiness-one that has won over some of the top chefs of our time.

Only until the government sees you make a lot of money then they will require their cut. But some countries are more forgiving for the small business owner and that's the way it should be.

I tried this branded seaweed butter and it taste extraordinary. I haven't try it on bread yet, but I've tried adding in my mushrooms to make mushroom soup. Tastes just like buttered mushroom soup with a hint of seaweed. Will totally buy it again if .. I have more money XD

I went to visit his shop in Saint Malo last year, absolutely to die for butter 😍 they will mix it right in front of you with a variety of different things!
I love having studied French for a few years and being able to understand what was said for the most part without the subtitles, also the line at the end was great lol

You don’t know if it’s really being eaten or just tasted unless if he’s seen swallowing it.
Even from reading the title in my feed made me really really hungry, so when I clicked to watch I was so distracted by the butter and the seaweed and imagining how it would taste like that I forgot to read the subs. I had to rewind the 2 minutes that I missed. 😢 Great Big Story indeed. I'd love to get my hands on one of these someday 🤤 Just a little taste, I probably won't forget it after.
2:30 I actually closed my eyes, Then realised I didn't understand French.

Hello again!
Aww that last line got me.😍
Okay... so in the first two seconds of the video he eats butter by itself and then in the last few seconds he’s just munching on washes up seaweed? Legend.
He has a sense of humour. I like him
I’ve never been so excited to try butter
I would love to try out that seaweed butter! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
That butter guy is so chill
Kind of surprised this did not get made in Japan first xD
And now I crave butter.
Anyone who loves the sea can invariably and instinctively know when they are near the ocean without ever seeing or hearing the waves. The smells change, the skies change, the winds change, the salt is palpable. The same goes for butter fats where briny seaweeds are present. It's like buttering your toast on vacation.
I need this channel back.
The way he describe seaweed butter is like telling someone what gold taste like.
This guy is funny... 😁

2:59 A man of culture, I see.
yO I’ve never honestly realized that I’ve needed this in my life. I like butter on almost all the bread I eat and I eat seaweed a lot for snack too. Why not both??
Man, I love this guy!!! 😃
I use a brand of sea salt - seaweed salt - that has kelp and dulse in it (instead of adding an iodine compound to make it meet the federal standard for iodized salt). I sprinkle it on just about everything I put salt on, both in cooking and at the table. It's an easy way to add a bit more nutrition to my daily diet. I like it best on hot buttered popcorn. Is there any place in the US where I can by Breton seaweed butter?
Great save at the last right there 😂
Great sense of humor. That look in the beginning made me chuckle
I love this guy
i always feel happy when I hear a word butter
Butter and nori flavored chips are delicious, so I figure this must be amazing too!
This video is so impressed.
The comments on this video are pure gold. Laughed so much!!!
Love the way he added at the end...except my wife. Smart man! He knows what side his bread is buttered on! 😂
Sea vegetables are suppposedly very healthy, high in vitamins, potassium and iodine. Some people don't care for the way they taste...but trust a Frenchman to mix them with butter and make them into something delicious!
I now yearn for such a butter.
Seems like a really fun guy to hang with
I like the butter smaking scene
His humorous is priceless
I love his personality
I’ve never had seaweed butter before in my life but now I’m craving it
I love butter and seaweed, I'm okay with this. Hahahaha
Would you guys ever mind sorting the videos by country? I like listening to the native languages, especially when I'm learning them!
Loved this video, even though I can't eat it !!
1:30 this scene is so random but I love it
“I know nothing more sensual than butter...sauf ma femme...” 🤣😂🤣 omg. Rigolo!!!!
Back in Nebraska our friend made honey butter and it was the best thing I have ever tasted
I've had this stuff and it is by no means overrated. It's that good.
absolutely sublime. I'm started saving for some.
Sounds amazing...! 😲✨
Almost forgot to see this video this month
Seaweed butter sounds magical..
He said the last line so he still has a home to go home to😂
So you buy those 3 types of dried seaweed and mix them with a good butter?
