Quick! Make that steak a little more interesting! You know how the perfect lipstick can make a beautiful woman feel amazing? Well, this quick blue cheese compound butter will make your everyday steak and potatoes dinner feel special. No roses or diamond studs needed. Though flowers are always appreciated, just saying.
The beauty of a compound butter is that they can usually be whipped up in a matter of minutes and they freeze beautifully. Try forming the butter into a log and wrapping it in saran wrap. You can freeze it and just slice off a little when needed. Throw it on the steak as it rests so that it can melt just slightly. Also excellent on warm bread and asparagus!
Blue Cheese Compound Butter
(serves 2)
Fork together the butter, cheese, parsley and a good pinch of freshly ground black pepper.
Place onto resting meats, or spread onto crusty bread.
