An Italian classic, fragrant with lemon.

Yield yields generous 1/2 cup

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
1 garlic clove, minced or pressed

Steps:

  • Soften the butter at room temperature, or microwave for about 10 seconds. With a flexible spatula, mix in the flavor ingredients. Use the spatula to form the butter into a log on a piece of aluminum foil, plastic wrap, or waxed paper. Wrap the log and close tightly. Refrigerate or freeze.
  • For the best flavor protection, place the wrapped butter log in a labeled and dated plastic storage bag. Well-wrapped Flavored Butters will keep in the refrigerator for about 2 weeks and in the freezer for 6 months. To use frozen butter, unwrap and slice off as much as you need. It may crumble if cut immediately out of the freezer, but it will slice cleanly after a few minutes at room temperature.
