Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 2 teaspoons Lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.125 teaspoons Freshly ground black pepper (optional)
Instructions
Allow the unsalted butter to soften at room temperature for 30-45 minutes until it becomes pliable but not melted.
Finely chop the fresh parsley to yield about 2 tablespoons and set it aside.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, chopped parsley, lemon juice, salt, and optional freshly ground black pepper.
Using a fork or a spatula, thoroughly mix all the ingredients until they are well combined, and the butter is evenly flavored.
Place a sheet of plastic wrap or parchment paper on your workspace, then transfer the butter mixture onto the center of the sheet.
Shape the butter mixture into a log using the plastic wrap or parchment paper to roll it tightly, twisting the ends to seal.
Refrigerate the butter log for at least 1 hour to firm it up before serving.
Once firm, slice the Maitre D'Hotel Butter into coins and serve atop grilled steaks, fish, roasted vegetables, or baked potatoes.
