Ingredients




1/2 cup butter
1 tablespoon finely-grated lemon zest
1/4 cup finely-minced parsley
1 teaspoon minced basil
1 teaspoon minced oregano

Preparation

1 Mix together butter, lemon zest, parsley, basil and oregano. Pack the butter into small serving crocks or pipe it out into dollop-sized rosettes using a pastry bag fitted with a star tip. Alternatively, pat butter into butter molds available in kitchen or gourmet shops. 2 Top molded butter or rosettes of butter with crushed ice to keep them cold. Butter curlers and melon ballers, found in the gadget section in housewares departments, also make decorative portions of butter. 3 NOTES :
