Salted Honey Butter Blend

# What You'll Need:

01 - 1 cup unsalted butter, softened

02 - 3 tablespoons honey

03 - 1 teaspoon fleur de sel, plus more for garnish

04 - 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, finely chopped

05 - 1 tablespoon fresh chives, finely chopped

06 - 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped

01 - In a medium bowl, combine softened butter and honey. Beat with a spatula or hand mixer until smooth and fully incorporated.

02 - Add fleur de sel and chopped herbs. Mix gently until evenly distributed throughout the butter mixture.

03 - Taste and adjust seasoning, adding a pinch more salt or honey if desired.

04 - Scrape the butter onto parchment paper or plastic wrap. Shape into a log and twist the ends to seal, or transfer to a small ramekin.

05 - Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up and allow flavors to meld.

06 - Sprinkle with extra fleur de sel. Serve at room temperature for easy spreading.

Softened butter is non-negotiable—cold butter will make your mixture lumpy and frustrating, and you'll question your life choices while stirring.
Chop your herbs right before mixing so they stay vibrant green instead of browning, which changes both the flavor and the look of your finished butter.

03 -

Let your butter sit at room temperature for exactly the right amount of time—usually about thirty minutes—instead of microwave softening, which creates uneven texture.
The fleur de sel flakes will look large and obvious when you first mix them in, but they redistribute beautifully as the butter chills, creating pockets of salty brightness rather than gritty spots.
