Juice from \u00c2\u00bd orange<\/p>\n

Garlic Herb and Parmesan Butter<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
8 ounces softened unsalted butter<\/p>\n
4 cloves garlic, minced<\/p>\n
2 tablespoons fresh flat leaf parsley, chopped<\/p>\n
2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped<\/p>\n
2 tablespoons green onion, chopped<\/p>\n
1\/4 cup grated parmesan<\/p>\n
Salt and pepper, season to taste<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Parsley, Chili, Garlic, And Lemon<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
4 Tbsp. Finely Chopped Fresh Italian Flat-Leaf Parsley<\/p>\n
1 tsp. Chili Flakes<\/p>\n
4 Cloves Garlic, finely chopped<\/p>\n
Zest of 1 Lemon<\/p>\n

For Each: Add all ingredients to a large bowl. Using an electric hand mixer beat all ingredients until well combined and fluffy.\u00a0 Place a medium size piece of plastic wrap on to a clean, flat surface. Using a rubber spatula, gather the butter together in the bowl, and then spoon the butter mixture out of the bowl and onto the center of the plastic wrap. Grabbing the bottom portion of the plastic wrap, pull it up over the butter and begin forming a log shape. Twist the ends of the plastic wrap and place butter in the fridge.\u00a0 Melt the compound butters on top of steamed vegetables, grilled fish or stuff a\u00a0 chicken breast and bake.<\/p>\n

Verbena Butter<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
6 ounces butter, softened (1.5 sticks of butter)<\/p>\n
2 T. honey<\/p>\n
2\u00bd tsp. finely chopped verbena (can also grind in a spice grinder)<\/p>\n
Pinch of salt (if using unsalted butter)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Mix all ingredients together either by hand or using a mixer<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Shallot-Parsley Butter<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
2 garlic cloves, peeled<\/p>\n
3\/4 cup peeled and coarsely chopped shallots<\/p>\n
2 C. picked-clean parsley leaves<\/p>\n
1 1\/2 tsp. salt<\/p>\n
1 pound unsalted butter cut into 1-inch cubes, at coolish room temperature<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In food processor chop garlic. Add shallots and chop finely. Add parsley and salt, process to coarsely chopped, then add butter. Process to smooth and emerald green.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Ramp Compound Butter<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
3 oz (Roughly 3 C.) lightly packed ramp leaves Use a scale for the best tasting result.<\/p>\n
8 oz 2 sticks salted butter<\/p>\n
1\/2 T. cold water<\/p>\n
A few cracks of the peppermill<\/p>\n
1\/2 T. chilled lemon juice or water plus a few scrapes of lemon zest, optional<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Cut the butter into T. sized pieces and bring to room temperature. Bring a pot of water to a boil and blanch half of the ramp leaves for a few seconds, just until they wilt, then refresh in cold water. Alternately, for a stronger flavor, steam the ramp leaves for a few seconds until just wilted. Squeeze the leaves dry, then chop roughly on a cutting board with the fresh ramp leaves. In the bowl of a food processor pulse the ramp leaf mash to smooth it out a bit, then gradually add the butter pieces 1 chunk at a time, along with the water, processing to make a smooth paste (it may take some time if your butter is cold-just be patient) continuing to process until the butter is light green and fluffy-make sure to watch the video as this is easier seen than explained. If the butter, or ambient temperature of the kitchen is very cold, add a spoonful or two of boiling water to help the mixture move in the food processor. Once the butter is emulsified, fluffy and brilliant green, add the pepper, and drizzle in the lemon juice, processing for a few seconds to lighten it. Double check the seasoning, adjust as needed (if you want it stronger you can spin in some extra chopped ramp leaves). Spread the butter onto a piece of parchment and refrigerate, or cut into portions and freeze. The butter will keep for a week or two in the fridge, and a couple months in the freezer. I prefer to vacuum seal it for the best long-term storage.<\/p>\n
