How to Make Thyme Garlic Butter
- Mince 4 large cloves of garlic. In a food processor, combine the minced garlic with 1 teaspoon of kosher salt and 1/2 cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter, softened.
- Add 2 tablespoons of fresh thyme leaves, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and a pinch of black pepper to the food processor.
- Process until completely smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides as needed.
- Transfer the mixture to a sheet of plastic wrap. Shape into two 6-inch logs, tightly wrapping each log separately. Twist the ends to seal.
- Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to fully meld. For long-term storage, after chilling, freeze one or both logs. To use frozen butter, simply slice as needed.
- Once chilled, slice and serve atop your favorite dishes – steaks, roasted vegetables, bread, pasta, and more!
