Ingredients
- 50 g basil leaves
- 200 g unsalted butter
- Salt to your taste
Instructions
- Soften butter until the necessary consistency.
- Separate basil leaves from the stem, rinse them under cool running water, and slice them into the smallest pieces that you can. Remember, you need to roll the leaves of the basil into the shape of a cigar and cut them carefully in order not to bruise them to keep the flavor inside the slices, and to stain the chopping board.
- Combine butter and basil in a bowl until the ingredients are nicely mixed. You can keep herb butter in the bowl, transfer it to a butter mold or make butter logs.
- Refrigerate butter for at least 3-4 hours (or freeze for an hour) for all the flavor of the herb to incorporate into the butter.
