Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Rosemary Butter
  1. In a mixing bowl, place 1 cup of softened unsalted butter, 2 tablespoons of finely diced fresh rosemary, ¼ teaspoon salt, ⅛ teaspoon freshly ground pepper, and ¼ teaspoon garlic powder. Mix until thoroughly blended.
  2. Continue mixing until smooth, ensuring that the rosemary flecks are evenly distributed throughout the butter.
  3. Transfer the rosemary butter onto a sheet of plastic wrap. Roll into a log shape, pressing firmly to remove air pockets.
  4. Place the rolled butter log into the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to firm up.
  5. For long-term storage, wrap the butter log tightly in foil and freeze for up to six months.

Notes

Store in an airtight container for optimal freshness. Let it sit for a couple of hours after mixing to let flavors meld before use.
