Ekici Butter - How Many Calories?

About 75 calories in 10 g of butter

Ten grams of Ekici butter provides about 75 calories and 8.2 g fat. Using 20 g gives about 150 calories and 16.4 g fat. A 10 g amount contains 5.37 g saturated fat. The difference between a thin and thick layer on bread is determined by the grams spread.

How much is two spoonfuls?

Spoon size, butter softness and how fully the spoon is packed affect its weight. Rather than assigning one unmeasured calorie figure to two tablespoons, weigh the butter used. If it weighs 15 g, count about 112 calories; at 25 g, count 187 calories.

Dividing recipe butter between servings

If a rice dish for four equal servings contains 20 g butter in total, each receives about 37 calories from the butter. With 50 g in the recipe, that contribution rises to about 94 calories each. Rice, stock and any other fats are additional. Melting butter in the pan does not remove the amount added from the calculation.

When starting a pan with dry-weighed basmati rice, calculate rice and butter separately. Water absorbed during cooking changes the finished weight, not the grams of butter added.

Counting buttered bread

Weighing the bread and butter separately makes the calculation clearer. For example, 40 g of the flower-shaped bread reference used here with 10 g Ekici butter comes to about 220 calories. Honey or jam adds more. The butter’s 75 calories alone do not describe the whole breakfast.
