What is Herbed butter?
Herbed butter is softened butter blended with finely chopped fresh herbs. Parsley, chives, dill or thyme are common choices, and the mixture can be shaped into a log or served soft so it melts easily over warm food.
Its rich, creamy taste is lifted by the herbs’ fresh, savoury aroma. It is often served with bread, grilled meat, fish or vegetables; a small pat also adds flavour to potatoes or corn. Herbed butter is chiefly a source of fat, with 80.5 g of fat per 100 g. Use a little at a time, or mix in extra herbs and lemon zest for a brighter, less buttery-tasting spread.

Frequently Asked Questions About Herbed butter
What is herbed butter?
Herbed butter is butter blended with chopped herbs, creating a fragrant spread or finishing butter. It can be served on bread or added to hot foods, where it melts and releases the herbs’ aroma.
How do you make herbed butter?
To make herbed butter, mix softened butter with finely chopped herbs until evenly combined. Shape it into a log or place it in a covered container, then chill until firm enough to slice or spread.
What herbs go best in herbed butter?
Parsley, chives, thyme, dill, and tarragon all work well in herbed butter. Choose herbs that suit the food you are serving, and chop them finely so every portion gets a balanced amount.
How do you use herbed butter on steak?
Put herbed butter on steak just after cooking, while the meat is still hot. It melts into a flavorful finish; adding it during grilling can cause the butter to burn and the fresh herbs to lose their aroma.
Can you freeze herbed butter?
Yes, herbed butter freezes well when wrapped tightly or stored in an airtight container. Freeze it as a log or in small portions, then thaw only what you need in the refrigerator before serving or cooking.
How should you store herbed butter?
Keep herbed butter covered in the refrigerator and return it there promptly after serving. Fresh herbs make it less suitable for leaving out like a butter dish, so use a clean utensil each time.
Can you put herbed butter on pasta?
Yes, herbed butter can be tossed with hot pasta for a simple, aromatic coating. Add it after draining and stir until it melts; a little pasta cooking water can help the butter cling to the noodles.
Can you cook with herbed butter?
Yes, herbed butter can be used to finish cooked foods or gently sauté ingredients. For high-heat cooking, plain oil or another suitable cooking fat is less likely to burn; add herbed butter near the end for its flavor.
What is the difference between herbed butter and compound butter?
Herbed butter is one kind of compound butter: compound butter means butter mixed with additional ingredients. Those ingredients may include herbs, spices, citrus, or other flavorings, while herbed butter specifically features herbs.
Can herbed butter be used on vegetables?
Yes, herbed butter works well on roasted, steamed, or grilled vegetables. Toss it with vegetables while they are hot so it melts evenly, or serve a small piece on top just before eating.
