Flavored butter is a great way to make your food somewhat more festive! The butter here can all be frozen, either as whole logs or sliced and frozen, so you can take out what is needed.
My favorite of all the butter here is the Cafe De Paris butter, which can go with anything!
Parsley Butter
Finished butter is enough for 4-6 portions
110 g Unsalted butter, room tempered
50 g washed and chopped parsley. Either flat-leaf or curly will work
10 drops Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp fresh lemon juice
1/8tsp cayenne
1/8 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black fine-ground pepper
In a medium mixing bowl add all of the ingredients and mash with a fork. Roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours, it’s easier to cut it or use it immediately by adding it to your steak, vegetables, or seafood.
