Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (225g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 3 cloves (15g) garlic, finely minced
  • 2 tbsp (6g) fresh Italian parsley, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp (6g) fresh basil, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp (1g) dried oregano
  • 2 tbsp (10g) grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 tsp (3g) kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp (1g) black pepper
  • 1/8 tsp (0.5g) crushed red pepper flakes

Instructions:

  1. Ensure butter is softened to room temperature. Finely mince the garlic and chop the fresh parsley and basil until they reach a paste-like consistency.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, basil, dried oregano, and grated Parmesan cheese.
  3. Using a spatula, fold the ingredients together until the color is uniform and herbs are evenly distributed. Stir in the salt and black pepper.
  4. Spoon the butter mixture onto parchment paper and roll it into a tight cylinder approximately 2 inches in diameter.
  5. Twist the ends of the parchment paper to seal the log and refrigerate for at least 1 hour until firm.
