1. Butter - You can use either salted or unsalted butter for this recipe. Keep in mind that you're butter will need less seasoning if you use salted butter.
2. Storage - Once made, this garlic butter can be served straight away or stored in the fridge for up to 3 days. I like to let my butter warm up to room temperature before serving as it will be easier to spread/scoop.
3. Garlic - We're using raw garlic for its' strong, punchy flavour. You could also use confit or roasted garlic instead, for a milder, deeper flavour. Feel free to add as much garlic as you like.
