Shallot Herb Butter Cooking tips:
Slicing butter into tablespoons allow for butter to reach room temperature 10x’s faster. If you cannot find a shallot use 4 cloves of garlic. Only use unsalted butter, this helps you control the amount of salt in your butter. Have fun mixing different herbs in the butter too!
Can you make ahead?
