  • CourseAppetizer, Breakfast
Ingredients
  • 1stick unsalted buttersoftened
  • 2oz ramp leaves and bulbsThis is 6 or so leaves.
  • 1/4tsp flakey salt
Optional
  • 0.5tsp lemon zest or pinch of chili flakesOptional
  • bread
  • radishesthinly sliced
Instructions
  1. Thoroughly wash the ramps to remove any dirt. Pat dry with paper towel or let dry for a bit.
  2. Trim off root and throw away. Finely chop both the white bulb and green leaves. If you find that onion is a strong flavor for you, you could Sautee the white ends briefly to have a milder flavor.
  3. Mix chopped ramps, salt and butter in a bowl. For a smoother texture you could use a food processor or a mixer.
  4. Scoop the butter into a vessel for storage. If you want to be extra fancy, you could roll the butter in parchment or plastic wrap to create a log shape. This can be helpful if you’d like to use the butter for steaks.
  5. Chill butter in the fridge for at least an hour or overnight.
