Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Unsalted butter (softened)
- 50 grams Limburger cheese (room temperature)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (finely chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt (optional)
- 1 pinch Freshly ground black pepper
- Crusty bread or crackers (for serving, optional)
Instructions
1. Remove the butter and Limburger cheese from the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature to ensure easy mixing.
2. Place the softened butter in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
3. Chop the Limburger cheese into small pieces and add them to the bowl with the butter.
4. Using a fork or a hand mixer, mash and blend the butter and Limburger cheese together until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Some small chunks of cheese are acceptable if desired.
5. Add the finely chopped parsley, lemon juice, salt (if using), and freshly ground black pepper to the mixture. Stir until all ingredients are well combined.
6. Taste the butter with Limburger mixture and adjust seasoning with additional salt or lemon juice if needed.
7. Transfer the mixture to a serving dish or scoop it into a ramekin. For a decorative touch, you can use a piping bag with a star tip to create swirls.
8. Serve immediately with crusty bread, crackers, or as part of a charcuterie board. Alternatively, cover the mixture with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve. Allow it to sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before serving, for easier spreading.
