Instructions
- Place the melted butter in the blender. Add Dijon mustard and garlic cloves. Puree until the mixture has emulsified and the garlic cloves are finely chopped.
- Add in the lemon zest, chive, parsley, crushed red pepper, ground cumin, and paprika. Pulse 2-3 times to blend the ingredients into the mixture.

- The compound butter can even be frozen! Use parchment to roll the butter into a log, then wrap tightly in plastic wrap and freeze. But for ease, I suggest slicing the entire log into single-portion discs and then flash-freezing the pieces for 1 hour on a baking sheet. Transfer to an airtight container with a tiny piece of parchment between each slice before sealing and freezing. Then you can pull out individual slices as needed! The butter will keep well in the freezer for up to 3 months.
