HONEY SESAME BUTTER

Honey Sesame Butter image

This versatile butter turns simple vegetables into stunning side dishes - add a pat or two to green beans, snap peas, asparagus, carrots, and parsnips. The sweetness from the honey also makes it perfect for spreading on dinner rolls, breakfast breads or bagels, and for topping pancakes, French toast and waffles. Use toasted sesame oil and sesame seeds to bump up the sesame flavor.
