The best herb butter in the world

It’s best to take the butter out of the fridge about 3-4 hours before preparation and place it in a bowl. Chop the herbs (don’t chop!) and mix them with the lemon zest. Mix the lemon juice, salt, and pepper with the Worcestershire sauce. Mix the herbs into the softened butter (you may need to cream the butter beforehand if you like). It’s best to mix this with a whisk or by hand. Once the herbs are evenly distributed in the butter, stir in the lemon juice, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce mixture and mix thoroughly. Divide the herb butter into four pieces, place them on cling film, and roll up. It’s best to place it directly in the freezer to solidify the butter. It will keep almost indefinitely there. It goes best with steak, roasted meat, fish, and potatoes.
