Instructions

  1. In a frying pan, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp and cooked to your liking.
  2. Remove bacon to a plate to cool. Reserve 1 tablespoon of bacon fat (if using).
  3. Add bacon to a food processor and process until finely chopped.
  4. Combine chopped bacon, butter, chives, pepper, and bacon fat (if using) in a bowl.
  5. Mix to combine, check for seasoning and add fine salt as required.
  6. Refrigerate until needed.

Notes

  • *Please note that the amount of calories per serve is provided as a guide only, as ingredients and cooking methods can vary greatly*
  • You want your butter to be soft enough to mix in your bacon and chives, but not so soft that it's too melted. If you then refrigerate the butter the consistency won't be the same.
  • Leave the bacon a little chunky if you would like more texture, or keep processing if you would like your compound butter to be smoother.
  • I use unsalted butter as a base for this compound butter recipe. Some bacon is saltier than others, and this way we can adjust the salt after everything has been added.
