Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter, at room temperature
- 4 tablespoons fresh herbs, washed & dried well on a paper towel, then finely chopped
- 1 garlic clove, minced (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon zest, finely grated (optional)
- Salt, to taste (you will need this if using unsalted butter)
How to Make
-
Step 1: Using a bowl; add the softened butter and chopped herbs, garlic, lemon zest and salt.
-
Step 2: Mix butter and herbs together well and transfer the mixture to an ice cube tray. (I find silicone trays work well and make them easier to remove).
-
Step 3: Place the tray in the freezer and allow the butter mixture to freeze overnight or for a minimum of 8 hours.
-
Step 4: Once butter is frozen, remove the cubes from the ice cube trays and place them in a freezer-safe container, freezer-zip lock bags, or plastic bags.
-
Step 5: These will store well for approx 6- 8 months.
