Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams Unsalted butter
- 75 grams Roquefort cheese
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 clove Garlic (finely minced)
- 1 teaspoon Fresh lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper (freshly ground)
Instructions
Allow the unsalted butter and Roquefort cheese to sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes to soften.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened butter and Roquefort cheese. Use a fork to mash the two ingredients together until well blended.
Add the chopped fresh parsley, minced garlic, fresh lemon juice, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Taste the butter mixture and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if necessary.
Transfer the Roquefort butter onto a piece of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Shape it into a log and roll the wrap tightly around the butter. Twist the ends to seal.
Refrigerate the butter log for at least 1 hour to firm up, or freeze for longer storage.
Slice the Roquefort butter into discs as needed. Serve on grilled steaks, bread, baked potatoes, or vegetables.
