Herbed Butter

Ingredients:
spices, basil, dried

Directions:
Soften the butter at room temperature, or microwave for about 10 seconds.
With a flexible spatula, mix in the flavor ingredients.
Use the spatula to form the butter into a log on a piece of aluminum foil, plastic wrap, or waxed paper.
Wrap the log and close tightly.
Refrigerate or freeze.
For the best flavor protection, place the wrapped butter log in a labeled and dated plastic storage bag.
Well-wrapped Flavored Butters will keep in the refrigerator for about 2 weeks and in the freezer for 6 months.
To use frozen butter, unwrap and slice off as much as you need.
It may crumble if cut immediately out of the freezer, but it will slice cleanly after a few minutes at room temperature.
