How to Make Garlic Butter (Easiest Homemade Recipe!)
Want to learn how to make garlic butter? Here's a simple guide to creating a flavorful butter that's a hit with bread, seafood, or veggies!
Ingredients
- 8 oz. – unsalted grass-fed butter softened to room temperature
- ½ tsp. – freshly squeezed garlic juice
- 1 tbsp. – fresh dill chopped
- 1 tbsp. – fresh parsley chopped
Instructions
Combining the Ingredients
- To start off, gather all your ingredients. You'll need salt, minced garlic, fresh parsley, and garlic powder. For this recipe, it is important to use high-quality butter for the best flavor.
- Once you've got everything, take a bowl and mix all your ingredients together. Make sure everything is well combined. This step is crucial as it makes sure that all the flavors meld together.
Shaping the Butter
- After mixing your ingredients well, it is time to shape the butter. Place your mixed butter onto a piece of parchment paper. Gently roll it into a log shape.
- This might take a bit of time and patience, but it is worth it. The log shape makes it easier to slice off just as much as you need later.
Refrigerating the Butter
- Once your butter log is ready, it is time to refrigerate it. Keep it in the fridge for about two to four hours. This allows the flavors to fully absorb into the butter, making it even more delicious. It also hardens the butter, making it easier to slice.
