I make this tasty butter during the growing season and often freeze for later use. When veggies are sauteed in the herb-butter, the basil tastes as fresh as if it just came out of the garden. -Emily Chaney, Penobscot, Maine

Not a fan. I found the flavor to be too overpowering.

This basil butter is a staple in my kitchen. I always have a batch on hand to add flavor to my meals. It's especially good on grilled chicken or fish.

Meh, it was okay. I prefer a basil pesto instead.

Not bad, but not my favorite. I found the flavor to be a bit too strong for my taste.
