Ingredients
1/2
cup
unsalted butter
softened - 1 stick
1
large clove
garlic
pressed or finely minced
1
Tablespoon
Italian parsley
chopped
1
Tablespoon
fresh basil
chopped
1
Tablespoon
fresh oregano leaves
remove from stems
1/2
teaspoon
sea salt
I used Himalayan pink
1/2
teaspoon
course ground black pepper
Instructions
Mix all of the ingredients together in a bowl until well combined.
Option 1
: Scoop out the butter with a small cookie scoop and place it in the cavities of an ice cube mold.
Place in the freezer to chill for one hour to harden.
Option 2
: Scoop out the butter mixture and form into a log shape in the center of parchment paper sheet or plastic wrap.
Fold over one side and smooth it down the side of the butter.
Gently roll the butter log over and over again to form a tube. Twist or fold the ends under to secure.
Place in the refrigerator or freezer to chill for an hour or two. Unwrap and slice into discs/rounds and place on hot steaks, fish or vegetables.
Notes
Make sure your butter is softened but not melted. Just leave it on the counter for an hour or so to soften up.
I used this
Heart-Shaped Silicone Mold
, but any shape will work. Make sure it hold 1 Tablespoon.
This is my 1 Tablespoon sized
Cookie Scoop
.
You could also scoop out the butter and place the scoops on a parchment lined baking sheet. Place in the freezer to harden.
Store unused compound butter in the freezer until ready to use.
If you freeze your butter first, you can store them in zipper top freezer bags so they take up less space.
