Bagna Cauda Butter
"Michael Chiarello's Casual Cooking Cookbook"
- Ready In:
- 20mins
- Ingredients:
- 6
- Yields:
-
1.25 cups
ingredients
- 59.14 ml extra virgin olive oil
- 59.14 ml chopped garlic
- 29.58 ml very finely minced anchovies
- 236.59 ml unsalted butter, at room temperature
- sea salt, preferably gray salt
- 14.79 ml very finely minced fresh Italian parsley (flat-leaf)
directions
- Heat the olive oil in a small saucepan over low heat. When the oil just begins to warm, add the garlic and anchovies and cook slowly, stirring, until the garlic becomes toasty brown and the anchovies dissolve, about 10 minutes. Let cool completely.
- Process the butter in a food processor until smooth and creamy. Add the cooled garlic-anchovy mixture and a pinch of salt. Process until well blended. Taste and add more salt if needed. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the parsley.
- Refrigerate until firm enough to shape into a log. Put an 18-inch sheet of aluminum foil on your work surface. Spoon the butter down the center of the foil into a log about 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Enclose in foil and twist the ends to make a sealed log, like a Tootsie Roll. Refrigerate for up to 1 week, or freeze for up to 6 months.

I LOVE:
Being a mom to a lovely, beautiful angel of a daughter, my wonderfully sweet, kind and loving husband, and my family. Cooking, of course, working out, spending time with my husband and family, taking walks, reading, catching up on celeb gossip, lounging around the house watching Heros DVDs, baking treats, playing with my daughter, and hanging out with my sister every week!!
