Are you following along with us on Facebook this week? We're discussing everything Seasonings, Spices and Herbs! We even created a board on Pinterest to share recipes, tips and histories of different seasonings, spices and herbs!
There's nothing better than filling your house with the delicious scents of herbs and seasonings while cooking! Both fresh and dried herbs and seasonings provide a very aromatic experience!
Today, we're sharing a recipe for French Herb butter. French Herb Blend, which is also referred to as Herbs de Provence, is a great staple to have in your refrigerator for baguettes or bread as well as cooking chicken or beef. It's a delicious addition to mashed potatoes too.
French Herb Butter
Ingredients
-1 stick of unsalted butter, softened at room temperature
-2 Tablespoons French Herb Blend (you can find French Herb Blend here)
Directions
Place softened butter and herbs into a mixing bowl. Using a spatula or large spoon, mix herbs into the butter until well blended. If you prefer a whipped texture, you can use a hand mixer to incorporate the herbs into the butter. Mix until blended.
Place your butter mixture into an airtight container and seal tightly. Refrigerate until firm. Use on sliced bread, to flavor and cook chicken and beef, or use in mashed or baked potatoes.
Did you know...one way to bring about the aromatic properties of dried seasonings and herbs is to rub them together in your hands before putting them into your dish. Rub between your palms to awaken the natural oils and release the locked in flavors!
