Angelica Butter
- 1 cube butter, softened to room temperature (NOT margarine or any kind of butter substitute)
- 1 tablespoon fresh angelica leaf, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon grated lemon peel
- 1 teaspoon garlic, peeled and minced
- 1/8 teaspoon white pepper
- Note: 1 cube butter=1/2 cup.
- Place the butter in a mixing bowl.
- Stir in the remaining ingredients.
- Place the mixture on a sheet of plastic wrap and set in the refrigerator until stiff enough to form a log.
- Shape the butter about 1 1/2" thick and cover with the plastic. Freeze the log until you are ready to use it. Tip: To shape the butter, I used an old stainless covered butter container like this: (http://myzerowaste.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/butter-dish.jpg) that I found at a second hand store. It wasn't exactly "log" shaped rather rectangular but it worked out well.
- Slice butter into 16 coin sized pieces so they will melt easily.
- Place directly from the freezer onto hot fish (grilled, poached, baked, etc.) or a variety of hot vegetables.
- Prep time does not include freezing the butter.
- Yield is half cup or approximately 16 butter "coins".
