Ingredients
|
Instructions
- Chop the garlic scapes into small pieces, about a quarter of an inch each. Add the pieces to the bowl of a food processor and chop until fine.
- Add the butter (you may need to give it a rough chop in order for it to fit in the food processor) and the lemon zest to the garlic scapes.
- Puree in the food processor until all ingredients are evenly combined
- Storage: For immediate use, place the compound butter in a jar or plastic container. Store in the fridge for up to a couple weeks. For longer term storage, place the compound butter on a piece of wax paper, roll it into a log and twist the ends. See the image below. For additional protection, place the roll of butter into a plastic zipper bag. Store in the freezer for 2-3 months.
