Compound butter always sounded fancy and like something you would only get at a restaurant. Spoiler alert- it’s just butter mixed with spices shaped into a nice little roll. So easy and keeps for a long time. I mean, can you imagine pulling compound butter out for your friends one night. Hello, impressive.
We use it on steaks a lot, such a great way to add flavor. You can use it wherever you would use butter though. Okay, maybe not pancakes. Actually, make yourself a strawberry infused butter and I’m totally into it. This butter I made for this recipe is a garlic herb compound butter. Perfect on a steak, fish, bread, pasta. So much!
Key is to make sure you are starting with a room temperature butter. This makes everything much smoother. Add your flavors and mix. Grab some foil, parchment, press and seal and roll it on up. Stick in the fridge and grab and go for meal time.
