Comment:

Compound butters are butters flavored with other ingredients. When melted over a sizzling steak, fish or vegetables, it further enhances the dish. This recipe is also perfect for grilled oysters.

Ingredients:

¼ cup mixed mushrooms, minced

¼ pound butter, softened

2 tbsps minced red onion

1 tbsp minced red bell pepper

1 tbsp minced garlic

pinch oregano

pinch basil

¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

salt and cracked black pepper to taste

Creole seasoning to taste

Method:

I recommend using a mixture of baby bella, oyster and button mushrooms. In a medium mixing bowl, cream all ingredients together. Mound in the center of a square piece of plastic wrap. Roll into a cylinder, sausage style, twisting at each end. Chill until firm. Cut into 12 equal slices.
