This compound butter is so easy-to-fix, very good & perfect for us as my DH is not esp fond of very sweet condiments. I used Steeves Canadian maple syrup that gave it a mellow maple sweetness, but allowed the savoury flavours to shine as well. I tasted it for this review, now have it in my freezer to use on sweet potatoes when we return from the U.S. next mo & I look forward to it. Thx for sharing your recipe w/us.
