⏱️ 30 min🍳 10 min⏱️ 30 min📊 Easy🍽️ 4Volume 2 · Sunday Sauce
A soft, fragrant compound butter packed with fresh herbs — the easiest way to turn a steak, a piece of fish, or a crusty loaf into something special.
| Amount | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 1 tbsp parsley | |
| 1 tbsp chives | |
| 3/4 tsp salt | |
| 500 ml (about 2 cups) heavy cream |
Preparation
- Using the whisk of an electric mixer, beat the cream until the milk fat separates and becomes butter and the buttermilk separates. Place the fat in a sieve and collect the liquid. Rinse the butter thoroughly under cold running water until the water runs clear. Put the butter in a kitchen towel, press well and refrigerate for about 15 minutes.
- Mix in the herbs and stir, then season. Put the butter into molds or wrap it in plastic wrap.
