Besides, plussed-up butter is the easiest way to elevate a special dinner, especially in summer when the gardens and markets are bursting with fresh herbs.

Steps:
- Soften the butter. You can just leave it out at room temperature and let it soften naturally for a couple of hours. Microwave: Remove the wrapping off the butter and place it in the microwave in 5 second increments. In 10 seconds, we had perfectly softened butter. Be careful. You do not want melted butter. The effect you are going for is that you can easily dent your butter when you press your finger into the butter.
- If using unsalted butter, add ½ teaspoon of salt. If using salted butter, you may choose to add ¼ teaspoon of salt or less to your desired taste.
- Add pepper, finely chopped fresh herbs or dried herbs, garlic powder and lemon zest (if desired) and mix well with a fork.
- You can serve it whipped right away. However, you may choose to roll it in a log and refrigerate or freeze for later. Cut a sheet of plastic wrap or parchment paper Place your compound butter on the 1/3 of the plastic wrap or parchment paper closest to you. Spread the compound butter with your spatula slightly.Gently, but firmly, grab the edge of the plastic wrap and roll the butter into a round log shape. Tightly twist the edges and wrap around. You can either place in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or in the freezer to store. Slice into wedges to serve and enjoy.

LIZ'S EASY GARLIC HERB BUTTER
I enjoy going to the grocery store, buying a product that I enjoy and finding a way to make it homemade and less expensive. Sometimes being on a tight budget does not mean you have to sacrifice the quality of the food you cook. I don't cook gourmet or better all the time but sometimes simple things can really turn a simple meal into something better. You can use fresh herbs if you prefer but I just use the Herbs I have handy in my herb rack. This garlic herb recipe is something I just tried one day for kicks and now I love it. I'm never buying it in a store again and hopefully you will love it too. This garlic herb butter goes wonderfully with ANYTHING. Use it with rice, meats, potatoes, and vegetables. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Make sure that your butter is softened. NOT MELTED.
- Put all of your ingredients in a mixing bowl and beat it until everything is mixed well and incorporated. Your butter will probably be a little creamy.
- Scrape the bowl and put your garlic butter in a container that has a lid and close the lid completely to make sure that no outside air will come inches
- Stick your dish in either the fridge or your freezer.
- I like to make this butter a day in advance so all of the ingredients can hang out. You don't have to let it sit if you need to use it immediately.
- NOTE : Keep in mind that a little will go a long way.
