Today I want to share a Wild Garlic Butter Recipe.

This recipe is amazing with any kind of steak and is a wonderful addition to any BBQ :)

To make this butter you will need:

wild garlic butter

Butter
Wild Garlic
2-3 Cloves of Garlic
Salt if necessary

Peel the garlic and add it to your food processor.
Add your wild garlic leaves and some salt (If you use salted butter this may not be necessary) and whiz them together.

In another bowl, add 400g (or as much butter as you desire) of room temperature butter. Add the herb and garlic mix to the butter and squish together with a potato masher or a fork.

Once it is mixed well, lay half of the portion onto some cling film.

Close the cling film and roll until you have a sausage formed butter.

Allium Ursinum

Do the same with the second portion.
Place both sausages in a ziploc bag in the freezer.
