Flavored butters, also called compound butters, have a multitude of uses. They make a plain baguette or artisan loaf come alive with flavor; they complement a hearty breakfast muffin or delicate scone; they serve as quick-fix sauces for a piece of fish, meat or a bowl of pasta; and they brighten an artichoke or a serving of green beans in surprising ways. We often see flavored butters as an elegant touch to bread service in restaurants, but there are plenty more varieties and uses that are easy for home cooks to use in their kitchens as well. Lucy Vaserfirer's Flavored Butters is the first and only book that provides the recipes and techniques for homemade flavored butters. In fifty recipes, Vaserfirer offers up ideas that are amazingly quick to execute in the kitchen and transformative in the flavor they impart. The recipes cover both sweet and savory applications, and each recipe has advice about what the butter is best used on. In addition to the recipes, there are plenty of photographs to illustrate, and ample tips and tricks, like the perfect temperature at which to serve the butters, how to serve, and the tools needed for making stunning presentations with flavored butters.

Disappointing for the cost

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 May 2016

After reading the reviews I felt that this book would be wonderful. I am disappointed. I had bought a Kilner butter churner and this was to be part of the gift. It is very US and talks of stick of butter which is not how our butter comes. The recipes are basically taking soft butter and adding various herbs or, for example,Brandy soaked dried cranberries. To be honest I feel I've wasted my money.

My daughter and I had been talking about flavored butters for awhile and I finally decided to look for recipe book. The price was right on this so I immediately bought it. We've tried about 10 of the recipes so far and have liked them all. The hardest part is deciding what to use each butter on. Honestly, once you find good pairs you'll wonder why you were using plain butter all this time. Olive butter on warm pita bread. Salted caramel butter with pecans on a croissant. Smoked butter (yum!) on a baguette. Miso and scallion butter on slice of sourdough. You could probably come up with similar recipes on your own, but this book is a really good way to start.

This is a good book on butter. Nearly a year later and I am still working my way through all the ideas and offerings. A great kitchen stable for a home butter maker.

Good book; great for a beginner to get some good ideas.

I am enjoying using this book to flavor homemade butter. Putting herbs in butter makes a great compound butter which is good to use on steamed veggies. In one batch, I mixed in a good Irish mustard and a touch of horseradish. The flavors intensify if you put the butters in the fridge instead of using the butter keepers.
