Herbed Butter

A really great way to add flavor to meat or veggies: A pat of herbed butter. Also a great way to save slightly past prime herbs from the compost bin.

Soften some nice Irish butter, chop up a bunch of herbs. Mix together. Place on saran wrap and roll into a log. Cut the log into quarter or half inch chunks. It freezes beautifully so it won't go to waste.

Imagine the variations: cilantro and chili powder; old bay and parsley; poultry blend. The options are endless.

I typically take the kitchen sink approach. Often there are far more herbs than butter!
