SUN DRIED TOMATO BUTTER (COMPOUND BUTTER)

Steps:

• Leave the butter out at room temperature for a few hours to soften. PRO TIP: cut the cube into little cubes and it will soften faster.
• Snip fresh herbs and sun dried tomatoes in a small mug or glass jar with clean kitchen scissors until the herbs and tomatoes are finely minced.
• Mix soft butter, 1/4 cup finely chopped herbs and sun dried tomatoes, 1/2 teaspoon sea salt and 1 teaspoon fresh cracked pepper, in a small bowl with a spatula.
• Place your sun dried tomato butter in a small sealed container with a lid, it will keep in the fridge for a week. Or place on parchment paper in a log shape, roll and twist ends closed-keep in fridge or freeze for longer storage.

Steps:

• In a small food processor, mince the garlic until it's pureed.
• Place all remaining ingredients in the food processor and puree until smooth. (If the tomatoes are large, I'd cut them in half or quarter them).
• Scoop out of the bowl onto a 12 inch piece of plastic wrap or wrapped paper. Form into a log by rolling up the wrap and pushing the butter into shape. Twist ends and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or freeze for 6, until firm.
• To use frozen butter, let it thaw in the fridge until you can slice it. You can also slice your log after it's firm, and freeze individual slices in a single layer.
