Steakhouse Butter
Take your steaks to the next level with Steakhouse Butter, a compound butter recipe featuring garlic, shallots, and fresh herbs. You've never had steak this good!
Ingredients
- ½ cup room temperature butter Make note of whether it's salted or unsalted because it will effect how you season this
- 2 tablespoons shallot your choice of red onion, sweet onion, green onion; finely minced
- 1-3 cloves garlic finely minced; quantity used depends on potency (cheap supermarket or fresh homegrown?) and preferred garlicky ness.
- 1 tablespoon parsley finely minced; you can switch this up for another green herb
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme finely minced; or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1-2 tablespoons red wine vinegar start with smaller, as sometimes it doesn't want to all mix it. I don't mind having a bit not mixed perfectly in.
- Freshly ground pepper and sea salt to taste
Instructions
- Mix together all ingredients in a bowl. Done!
- Now top it on your grilled, pan fried or broiled steak and wow some people!
Notes
- Alternatively, you could put herbs, onion, garlic, vinegar in food processor, pulse until smooth, then add butter and pulse until combined. I'd have to own a food processor to try that, but I'm sure it would work fabulously.
