You scoop out the lumps of butter, which should be clumping together, and put
in a flattish bowl.  Run a light stream of cool water on it, and pat the
butter lumps to and fro with a spoon or spatula, squishing it sorta...  The
washing water will get a little milky as the buttermilk comes out.  Anyone
else have a better description?
