Butter is flavored with candied ginger and makes a great condiment for muffins and quick breads. Try some on steamed carrots for a burst of flavor.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 2 Tablespoons finely chopped crystallized ginger
  • 1 Tablespoon honey
  • Generous dash of salt

Preparation:

In a small bowl, stir together butter, ginger, honey, and salt until combined. Serve butter immediately or cover and refrigerate.

To serve, let stand for 15 minutes at room temperature to soften.

Yield: about 1/2 cup
