BASICS
DILL BUTTER
VEGETABLE CREAM CHEESE
Using a high quality, European-style butter makes a difference, so splurge!
We feature it in our Dill-Radish Tea Sandwich, page 23,
but a pat on top of grilled or roasted salmon is another great use for it.
Vibrant with color and texture, this spread isn’t just for schmearing
on your morning bagel – serve with crackers, in sandwiches,
or even as a topping to a baked potato.
Makes ½ cup
1. Insert the chopping blade into the work bowl of the
food processor.
2. Put the dill into the work bowl and process to chop,
about 20 seconds.
3. Scrape down sides of bowl if necessary, and then add the
butter. Process, scraping down as needed, for about 10
seconds.
4. Add salt and pepper and process to incorporate, an
additional 5 seconds. Taste and adjust seasonings
accordingly.
