Garlic Herb Compound Butter
Rich and creamy garlic herb compound butter is a must-have ingredient to elevate your weekday meals to restaurant-style gourmet dishes in just 10 minutes.
Servings: 24 Tbsp
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups unsalted butter softened
- 5 cloves garlic large
- 1 tbsp thyme
- 1/2 tbsp rosemary
- 1/2 tsp lemon zest
- 1 tsp sage (optional)
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp salt
This will yield about 1.5 cups of compound butter
Instructions
- Remove the herb leaves from the stems, then mince. Grate the garlic and zest the lemon.
- In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients and mix well until completely combined.
- Lay out a piece of baking parchment. Add the butter to it, then roll over the baking paper and form the butter into a log shape. Roll the rest of the way to create a tight seal, then twist at the ends to keep it secure. Place in the fridge to harden for about 30 minutes.
