What is compound butter?

Compound butter is butter that is made even more delicious by adding aromatics like herbs, garlic, citrus zest, anchovies, Parmesan, etc.

Ingredients for anchovy compound butter.

How to make compound butter

  1. Prepare the add-ins: Finely chop the anchovies and herbs. Place in a medium-sized mixing bowl then add minced garlic and lemon zest.
  2. Mix: Add the softened butter then season with salt and pepper and mix until well combined. At this stage you can roll the butter into a cylinder in some plastic wrap or parchment paper. I like to serve the butter in small serving dishes so that everyone can add a much butter to their steak as they would like.

Can I make compound butter ahead?

Yes! You can keep the butter covered in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or freeze it for up to 3 months. It’s a great way to use up leftover herbs, garlic, etc. and preserve it for future use.
