Gorgonzola Butter

Submitted by twissis

"Flavored butters are a much-favored condiment for me & this one from *The Carnival Experience* by Peter Leypold (Exec Chef of Carnival Cruise Lines) can be used often w/filet mignon, tenderloin, grilled gourmet burgers or on baguette bread to accompany a soup or salad course. *Enjoy* !"

I have been looking for a recipe similar to Sullivan's Steakhouse gorgonzola garlic butter. I love that topped on my filet mignon, and I have been dying to find a copycat recipe. I tried this recipe tonight on a T-bone steak, leaving out the lemon, worcestershire, and tabasco, and adding a teaspoon of fresh chopped parsley. I have a very discerning pallet, and this recipe is on the money! I may never go back to Sullivans! :)

What a lovely addition to our steak! I made half a batch and got 10 rosettes. I will freeze the rest until Thanksgiving! They look cute and are very tasty! Made for Twissis' Football win 2014.

I made this as written except for the Tabasco. I can't believe how good it was on a slice of rosemary & olive oil sourdough bread that I warmed in the oven. I had it with a bowl of homemade chili. Thanks for sharing. Made for Football Pool 2012.

Mmmm. this is tasty. I didn't use Tabasco, because I didn't have any, but otherwise made as written. Mine had a fairly strong worcestershire flavor at first, but the flavors mellowed and blended when the butter was chilled. I can imagine many, many uses for this. Congratulations on your football pool win, and thanks for posting!

I am reporting these as made, but Not tasted yet! They are all tucked up in the fridge awaiting their appearance on our dinner table tomorrow; I am serving this butter on baguette with soup as a starter for dinner with friends. Made for Aussie/Kiwi recipe swap #22 and Appy Photo event in the Photos Forum. I will report back photos and taste stars tomorrow! FT:-) Edited on 04/12 for taste stars! Served with hot baguette and cornichons for an elegant appy! I was going to serve this with soup. but having tasted the butter, it was so tasty and cheesy that I changed my plans! Another imaginative and useful recipe from you Twissis - saved for the future! Merci encore! FT
