Introducing Buji Brown Butter

“Secret Ingredient to Deliciousness” Set to Debut at Winter Fancy Food Show

PORTLAND, Ore. – Buji Brown Butter, a line of super-premium brown butter hand-crafted by seasoned food entrepreneur Lisa Herlinger, will debut at the Winter Fancy Food Show in Las Vegas, NV, between January 19 and 21, 2025.

Buji Brown Butter was born from Herlinger’s passion for transforming simple ingredients into deep, complex flavors. Carefully crafted using a time-honored, natural technique, Buji Brown Butter is the perfect ingredient for your favorite cookie recipe, or to finish a steak or vegetables, hot off the grill.  Buji’s rich, nutty aroma, smooth texture and depth of flavor will, quite frankly, blow your mind, and leave a lasting impression on everyone who tastes it.

“When I mistakenly discovered the beauty — yes, beauty! (see pics below) — the smell, and the flavor of this solid version of brown butter, I knew I had to spread “the butter,” says founder Lisa Herlinger. “I am committed to using grass-fed butter, known for its higher levels of beta carotene, which is also responsible for the butter’s beautiful yellow appearance. Then I use traditional techniques to cook and brown it to perfection, creating a consistently delicious end product.” Herlinger goes on to explain, “I’m actually taking a beloved basic ingredient and making it kinda “fancy.” I like to say that we’re a humble character living a luxurious — or “Buji” — lifestyle.” 

Buji Brown Butter is for:

  • Chefs looking to elevate savory dishes with a sophisticated touch minus the extra time.
  • Home cooks who want to add a gourmet twist to everything from breakfast to dessert, including snacks and beverages.
  • Retailers who offer high-quality, on-trend ingredients to discerning customers.

Buji Brown Butter is seeking partnerships with:

  • Restaurant and hotel chefs interested in showcasing Buji’s versatility in culinary applications.
  • Meal Kit/ Charcuterie Board Businesses:
  • Specialty food retailers, including specialty/gourmet markets, bakeries, cheese shops, and independent grocers.
