Ingredients

1 stick salted butter, room temperature(or 1/2 cup homemade, salted)

various add ins....see below!

Directions

FOR HERB BUTTERS:

use 1-2T finely chopped fresh herb(dill is okay, dried, the rest, I'd say stick to fresh:parsley, oregano, thyme, rosemary, tarragon, chives, basil, etc)

FOR SPICE BUTTERS:

2-3t depending on taste and spice(ie cayenne, chili, curry, cumin, paprika, cinnamon, etc)

FOR SWEET BUTTERS:

2T honey or

1T unsweetened cocoa and 1-2T powdered sugar or

vanilla with or without above sugar

NUT BUTTERS:

2T finely chopped nuts(ie pecans, walnuts, hazelnuts, peanuts, macadamias, etc)

SPECIAL BUTTERS:

"Hotel" Butter is about 1T parsley, a squirt of lemon juice and a touch of fresh ground pepper

You can add minced onion and garlic for another savory butter

Also, mix and match the above and add the zest from any citrus fruit to make all kinds of combos...cilantro/chili/lime butter, Orange/Honey butter, as seen on my French Toast recipe ;), lemon/Chive

**The butters shown above are named with their ingredients, and the "main" photo is cinnamon/honey butter**
