Flavoured butters captured my attention during ZWT & I now even have a cookbook devoted to them. I struck gold at recipegoldmine.com, found 4 new varieties I could not find here at RZ & decided to enter them. This is the 3rd & I modified it slightly. There was a notation that the recipe had been posted by Nixee. Enjoy!
