Ingredients
1cupunsalted butterat room temperature
4clovesgarlicminced
1tablespoonfresh rosemaryfinely chopped
1tablespoonfresh thymefinely chopped
1tablespoonfresh parsleyfinely chopped
Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
Place the room temperature butter in a medium bowl. This is important as it needs to be soft for you to be able to easily incorporate the other ingredients.
Add the minced garlic to the butter. Ensure the garlic is evenly distributed throughout the butter.
Add in the fresh rosemary, thyme, and parsley. Mix until the herbs are well incorporated into the butter.
Season the butter with salt and pepper. Stir until well combined.
Once well mixed, place it on a sheet of plastic wrap. Roll the butter in the plastic wrap, shaping it into a log. Twist the ends of the wrap to secure it.
Refrigerate the butter for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld together. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
To use, slice a piece directly from the log and apply it on warm toast, grilled meats, or vegetables. Enjoy the rich, buttery goodness!
Notes
Use high-quality butter, fresh garlic, and your choice of herbs to create a flavorful butter.
Before mixing ingredients, soften the butter at room temperature for easier work and more evenly blended results.
To evenly distribute garlic flavor, finely mince or crush garlic cloves using a garlic press or a sharp knife.
To prevent flavor loss, store herbed garlic butter in an airtight container or tightly wrap it to prevent air exposure.
Herbed garlic butter is a delicious and elegant finishing touch for grilled meats, vegetables, or pasta dishes, adding a burst of flavor.
Spread herbed garlic butter on freshly baked bread or rolls for a quick and delicious appetizer or accompaniment to a meal.
