Instructions

Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat the butter and salt for a couple of minutes until fluffy. Add the garlic and parsley, and stir to combine well.
Transfer the garlic butter onto a sheet of plastic wrap and roll it up to form a cylindrical shape. Twist both ends tightly and refrigerate. The butter will be ready to use once it becomes cold and solid.

Notes

Let the butter soften at room temperature before blending with other ingredients. This will make it easier to mix, and you’ll end up with a smoother consistency.
Experiment with different herbs, spices, and seasonings. You can create a unique flavor profile by adding ingredients like lemon zest, honey, or even chili flakes.
Use fresh herbs for the best flavors. Dried herbs can also be used, but use only half the amount.
Gently roll the butter into a log shape using plastic wrap or parchment paper. It’s easier to slice and store this way.
Double or triple the recipe and store it in the freezer for future use. This way, you’ll always have garlic & herb butter on hand whenever you need it.
