Truffle Butter
Ingredients
- 2 sticks butter, softened
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
- ¼ teaspoon truffle oil
- Salt and pepper
- 1 shallot, finely minced
- 4-5 crimini mushrooms, sliced
- Extra virgin olive oil
- Plastic wrap
Procedure
- Heat a medium skillet on medium high heat.
- Add enough oil to the pan to just coat the bottom. When hot, add the mushrooms.
- Sauté until golden brown. Add the shallots and cook until softened.
- Remove from the heat and spoon mushrooms and shallots onto a paper towel.
- Meanwhile, put the butter, herbs and oil into a medium bowl.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper
- Finely chop the mushrooms and add to the butter. Mix well with a spatula.
- Roll out a sheet of plastic wrap. Spoon butter onto the middle of the wrap. Fold over sides and begin to roll up the butter, twisting the ends like a candy wrapper.
- Continue to roll the butter, squeezing in the sides and forming the butter into a log shape. Make sure to remove all air bubbles from the middle of the butter.
- Freeze or chill in the refrigerator. When ready to use, slice and remove plastic wrap. Allow butter to melt and enjoy!
