Flavored Butters: How to Make Them, Shape Them, and Use Them as Spreads, Toppings, and Sauces (50 Series)

Flavored Butters contains fifty recipes and techniques for making compound butters in both sweet and savory varieties. These butters can be used as spreads on bread, toppings for baked goods, quick sauces for fish, meat, and pasta, and flavor enhancers for vegetables. While flavored butters are commonly served with bread in restaurants, this book explores additional varieties and applications suitable for home cooking. Each recipe is quick to prepare and includes guidance on the best uses for that particular butter. Recipes include Shallot-Herb Butter, Rosemary-Roasted Garlic Butter, Mint Butter, Caramelized Onion Butter, Chipotle Butter, Kimchi Butter, Orange-Honey Butter, Salted Caramel Butter, Rose-Berry Butter, and Hazelnut Praline Butter, among others. The book features photographs, tips on serving temperature, presentation techniques, and tools needed for shaping and serving flavored butters.
