Basil Butter

• 12 cup unsalted butter, softened at room temperature
• 12 cup finely chopped sweet basil
• 1 teaspoon minced garlic
• 12 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
• 12 teaspoon white pepper
• kosher salt

1. In a bowl, combine the butter, basil, garlic, lemon zest, white pepper, and 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt and mash with a spoon until well combined.
2. Use immediately as a spread for corn on the cob, grilled vegetables, or dinner rolls.
3. Or use plastic wrap to shape the basil butter into a log, tightening the ends as if it were a sausage.
4. Refrigerate until very firm.
5. Slice into 1/4-inch-thick coins and melt over just-off-the-grill chicken or pork cutlets, fish fillets, or vegetables.
