Family and I were out delivering some homemade goodies to folks and one of them gave us a neat gift that I'd like to share with ya'll. It is called Bandera Butter and is used on steaks. The packaging was neat as well. It was wrapped in brown parchment paper and tied on the ends with thisle twine making it neat to look at. They had also made some labels on their computer as well as the recipe and punched a hole in the corner of these labels and tied them to the log with the thistle twine. Kinda neat. As it turned out, I was planning on cooking steaks so I was able to give it a try. Now I'm not one to put much more than salt and pepper on a good steak but this stuff is pretty tasty and easy to make.
1 cup of softened unsalted butter
1/4 cup chopped cilantro leaves
1 tbs of Kosher salt
3 cloves minced garlic
5 oven-dried tomatoes chopped up
With food processor, blend all ingredients just until smooth.
On a sheet of parchment paper or waxed paper shape butter into log 1.5 inches wide.
Roll the butter up into parchment paper being sure to work out any air pockets.
Secure with freezer tape and place in freezer for one hour.
To use, slice butter and place on cooked steaks. Mighty good. And it seems easy enough to make. Might even inspire someone to go out and buy some steaks which would not hurt our business either. ;-) :lol:
