compound butter

such a simple pleasure in life; cooking. i'm in love. i really am. 

1 stick of softened unsalted organic butter
1 tablespoon of fresh sage
1 tablespoon of fresh thyme
1 large garlic clove 
dash of salt & ground pepper

throw it all in a food processor and .........

heaven. cook with it or just slather it all over some bread. 

next time i think i will make a sweet butter. 



wrap it up in saran wrap and stick it in the fridge for about 30 minutes to re-harden it. it'll last about a week in the fridge :) 



i also made an olive tapenade and garlic jalapeno hummus. i am in awe of how quick and easy it is now to do things like this with my food processor.
best. gift. to. myself. ever.
