Issue 40 - Flavored Butters

Herb Butter
Makes: 1/2 Cup
Total Time: 15 Minutes

Combine:
1/2 cup salted butter, room temperature
3 T. finely chopped fresh herb of your choice (thyme, rosemary, or chives are great with chipotle glazed salmon)
1 t. lemon zest, minced
1/2 t. ground black pepper
Few drops fresh lemon juice

Combine all ingredients in a small bowl with a rubber spatula or the back of a spoon until incorporated. Place butter on the bottom edge of a sheet of plastic wrap. Lift the bottom edge up and over the butter, rolling into a smooth, even log. Twist the ends of the plastic wrap to seal, then chill or freeze until firm.
