Tips:

  • Choose fresh thyme. Fresh thyme has a more intense flavor than dried thyme, and it will give your spread a more vibrant color.
  • Use unsalted butter. Unsalted butter allows you to control the amount of salt in your spread. If you use salted butter, you may find that your spread is too salty.
  • Let the butter and cream cheese come to room temperature before using them. This will make them easier to mix together and will help to create a smooth spread.
  • Be careful not to overmix the spread. Overmixing can cause the spread to become grainy.
  • Taste the spread before serving. Adjust the seasonings to your liking.

Conclusion:

Creamy thyme spread is a delicious and versatile spread that can be used on a variety of foods. It is perfect for sandwiches, crackers, and vegetables. It can also be used as a marinade for chicken or fish. The spread is easy to make and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
