First one, I freeze my butter from the store but is it alright to freeze Amish butter? Do I need to do anything differently with it?

 

Second one, can corn oil and veg oil be interchanged for baking? I have a recipe that calls for veg oil but want to start using up the corn oil.

Ok, got that out of the way. **Dusts off hands**

 

By "Amish butter", do you mean fresh butter that you got from an Amish store? Or something that has something added, like honey butter? I'm guessing the first... butter that isn't "commercially" packaged. I would wrap it tightly in plastic wrap to keep it smelling and tasting fresh, and then just freeze it. Just common sense stuff. Some people re-wrap their commercially packaged butter to keep it tasting fresher, but it's not mandatory.

 

Yup, there's not a whole lot of difference in the two. The corn oil is pure corn oil and not stuff like rapeseed/canola oil added in.
