Notes

Ways to store herbed butter

  • Place butter on a sheet of plastic wrap. Using the wrap, form the butter into a log. Wrap in plastic wrap and then in foil. Freeze until ready to use.
  • Use a candy mold to form butter into fun shapes. Scoop the butter into the mold and press the butter in firmly. Freeze the butter in the mold overnight. Pop the butter shapes out of the molds and keep in refrigerator for use within 2 weeks, or freeze the shapes in a freezer bag and use as needed.
