MAITRE D'HOTEL BUTTER
My mother gave me a superb Italian cookbook many, many years ago. It has a great savoury butter recipe. I have given variations for the different butters. Slices of butter can be used to garnish steaks, chops, chicken, fish or vegetables and I have also used it in sandwiches and canapes. And best of all it can be frozen!

- Use High-Quality Butter: Start with the best butter you can find. Unsalted butter gives you more control over the flavor, but you can use salted butter if you prefer.
- Soften the Butter: Make sure the butter is softened to room temperature before making the compound butter. This will make it easier to mix and incorporate the other ingredients.
- Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs add the best flavor to compound butter. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.
