Herbed Butter
This Herbed Butter adds a new and vibrant flavor to vegetables and meats. It can also be used as a savory spread for bread and rolls. It's my new delight in cooking!

- 1/2 cup butter softened, unsalted
- 2 tablespoons parsley chopped, fresh
- 1 green onion chopped, white portion only
- 1 teaspoon thyme removed from stem, fresh leaves
- black pepper dash
Instructions

Notes
- Ways to store herbed butter
- Place butter on a sheet of plastic wrap. Using the wrap, form the butter into a log. Wrap in plastic wrap and then in foil. Freeze until ready to use.
- Use a candy mold to form butter into fun shapes. Scoop the butter into the mold and press the butter in firmly. Freeze the butter in the mold overnight. Pop the butter shapes out of the molds and keep in refrigerator for use within 2 weeks, or freeze the shapes in a freezer bag and use as needed.
