Herb Butter
Fresh herbs can be difficult to take care of because of their delicate nature, and sooner than we realise, they wilt and we have to throw them away. Herbs have their most robust flavour when they are fresh. As they age, they lose their taste and texture. Preserve their flavour for a long time by making this herb butter.
Pack these little cubes of huge flavour into any dish, and minimise your food waste at the same time.
