Method

6 steps

1. 1

   Soften the Butter: Allow the butter to soften at room temperature until it is creamy and easy to mix. Do not completely melt the butter.

2. 2

   Prepare the Garlic: Peel and finely mince the fresh garlic. A garlic press can be used for an especially fine texture.

3. 3

   Combine the Ingredients: Add the minced garlic, parsley, salt, black pepper, Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning to the softened butter.

4. 4

   Mix Until Smooth: Use a spatula or fork to mix everything thoroughly until the garlic, herbs, and seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the butter.

5. 5

   Shape and Chill: Place the garlic butter onto parchment paper and shape it into a log. Wrap tightly and refrigerate until firm.

6. 6

   Slice and Serve: Slice the chilled garlic butter as needed. Use it softened as a spread or melt it over steak, seafood, vegetables, pasta, potatoes, or warm bread.
