HERBED COMPOUND BUTTER

Herbed Compound Butter image

A compound butter - a stick of butter seasoned with herbs, lemon and garlic or shallots - is one of the most versatile things to keep on hand. You can store it in the freezer, then slice it whenever you want to add herby richness to a dish. Use it on steak, fish, chicken or even mashed or roasted sweet potatoes. And feel free to vary the herbs to suit your taste. For a kick, a pinch or two of chile powder or a drizzle of hot sauce would do the trick. This recipe is part of The New Essentials of French Cooking, a guide to definitive dishes every modern cook should master. Buy the book.

COMPOUND BUTTER

Compound Butter image

A mixture of butter and other ingredients makes a compound butter, which can be used as a kind of insta-sauce on top of cooked meat, vegetables or fish. A classic variety is maître d'hotel butter, which uses thyme and lemon juice as flavoring agents. But a cilantro-and-lime-juice compound butter is a marvelous thing to apply to fish, and you could even think of adding a tiny dice of jalapeño pepper to the mix. Lemon-basil is terrific as well - you could add some garlic to that and omit the shallots. Some cooks take maître d'hotel butter and add Roquefort cheese to it as a topping for steak. Compound butter is a theme on which to improvise. The following recipe provides the basic instructions.

8 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon herb leaves, minced
1 small shallot, peeled and minced
2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon or lime juice
Splash Champagne or white-wine vinegar

Steps:

Put the butter on a cutting board and, using a fork, cut the other ingredients into it until the butter is creamy and smooth.
