How to Make Lemon Verbena Butter

  1. Gently combine 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter, 1/4 cup packed fresh lemon verbena leaves, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Use a spatula or fork to gently mix until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
  2. Transfer the mixture to a small, airtight container. Press the mixture down gently to create an even layer.
  3. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the butter is firm. This allows the flavors to meld and the butter to set properly.
