Honey-Citrus Butter image

This is quite a bit different from other honey orange butter recipes here; it calls for the juice to be cooked down into a syrup. Adapted from Sam Choy's Polynesian Kitchen. My preference is to use salted butter for more even salt distribution. Prep time is time to prepare the orange syrup; cook time includes chill time.
