Welcome to the GND Recipes Library! Compound butter is a secret weapon used in high-end steakhouses and French restaurants. By blending softened butter with herbs and finely chopped dehydrated citrus, you create a flavor bomb that melts beautifully over hot food. Dehydrated citrus is superior here because it adds intense lemon oil and a slight chewy texture without adding water that would cause the butter to split.
