Recipe: Herb Butter

jason

Have a great day
Ingredients:
4 oz. Butter (1 stick), softened
1/4 Cup Herbs (your choice), finely chopped
1 Teaspoon Lemon Juice
Sea Salt, to taste

Preparation:
Any combination of herbs will do here. Trying a mixture of any of the following: tarragon, chives, parsley, dill, rosemary, thyme, sage, dill or use a single herb. Chop the herbs as fine as possible.
Cream the butter and herbs together with a fork. Add the lemon juice and salt to taste.

On a piece of plastic wrap, shape the butter into a log about one inch in diameter. Wrap the log in plastic.

The butter will keep in the refrigerator for a week or a month in the freezer.

When you're ready to use it, just slice off a piece and place directly on the hot food. If the butter is frozen, let it warm slightly before using.

Herb butter sounds like it would be really good. I like the variety you could make and the extra nutrition the herbs would add to my diet.

Does anyone have any other recipes for flavored butter? I really like the honey butter that one of the steak restaurants serves with their rolls, but when I try to make honey-butter, it never tastes the same. Does anyone know how much honey should be added to the butter for the best taste?
