Whether you put it in your pasta, or spread it on bread, this garlic and herb butter turns up the flavor! And its ridiculously easy to make.
I highly recommend you make this garlic and herb butter the next time you have company over for dinner. You will wow them!
I absolutely love cooking, and baking with herbs. It wasn’t until too long ago that I started to actually appreciate fresh herbs. I never really used them. And if I did, it would be very little, and not fresh. I would use the dried herbs you buy at the store.
Using fresh herbs for anything is seriously a game changer.
You know how I said this butter is easy to make? Well, it is! All you need is a stick of salted butter, some fresh chopped herbs, onion powder, and minced garlic. How simple and easy is that?
Smash it all together with a fork (my preference) and thats it! You can either make it ahead of time, a day or two to let the flavors marinate. Or you can serve right away. But I highly recommend making it ahead of time. The flavor is better!
You can use this butter as a spread, or mix it into a pasta dish. You can even add it into a baked good to make it savory! I made some cornbread, and added some of this butter, melted in the batter for a savory flavor. It was delish!
