Ingredients
Method
FOR THE EXTERIOR OF THE CHILI LIME BUTTER
- Prepare a piece of parchment paper or a silicone mat (I prefer parchment for this).
- You will be preparing the paper for rolling the butter in after you've made it.
- So you don't want the fresh ingredients to be longer than a 1/2 stick of butter (keep that in mind when you are placing your fresh herbs on the parchment.
- Place the 2 tablespoons of chopped parsley on the parchment.
- Then add a teaspoon of chives.
- Next, the ripped basil leaf.
- Follow that with a good zest of lime across all the scatter.
- Set this aside.
FOR THE CHILI LIME BUTTER
- In a mixing bowl, place softened butter.
- Next, add in a chopped marigold and a snapdragon (chopped).*
- Follow with a teaspoon of chopped chive. (reserve a teaspoon)
- Add in your Lime Chili Seasoning.
- Then a quick 'once-over' with a zest of lime, not much, just a one-time down the grater.
- Now add in one tablespoon of chopped parsley.
- Smash the butter with your fork.
- Incorporate all the ingredients, scrape down the sides of the bowl as well.
- Once you have mixed everything together it's time to form your butter.
- Bring the parchment paper into your workspace.
- Remove the butter from the bowl.
- You will want to work with the butter to form a semi-log like it might be purchased in.
- Then, once formed, roll the butter into the fresh herb mixture making sure to coat it all.
- Now, it's time to refrigerate and store your butter, until you are ready to use it.
- HOT TIP ** - See below.
- Refrigerate until you are ready to use this.
- Bring to room temperature before serving or using.
- Enjoy~ Dana XO
