Receta Basil Compound Butter
I’ve been trying to use up all of my herbs since I don’t have the window space to keep them all winter long. There are so many great ways to use or save your herbs after harvesting, but making compound butters is always one of my favorites. Everyone loves butter, right? This is so easy to do and really brings a nice change to your bread at dinner or you can use it melted over pasta, seafood, etc.
