Keto Blue Cheese Garlic Butter

Keto Blue Cheese Garlic ButterKeto Blue Cheese Garlic ButterKeto Blue Cheese Garlic Butter.  You know, we may never have realized it but if you have ever ordered steak in a restaurant chances are you have been served a compound butter a time or two.  Often enough it may arrive as a little puddle of something on top of your steak but boy oh boy, it sure was good. Compound butters are small but powerfully flavored allies in the meat world. Can you use a keto blue cheese garlic butter with vegetables?  Yes, of course you can but it just isn’t done that often because as garlic cooks it also mellows to milder, you probably would not want blue cheese in it and as a compounded butter you get the bite and flavor of GARLIC which, with a steak or meat of some kind is sometimes just what you want.  Coupled with an off the outside grilled steak?  Ooh La La La La La La.

One of the really nice things about a compounded butter is how wonderfully they freeze for use at another time and when you don’t have the time to throw a sauce together.  Just take your log out of the freezer, let it sit for 15 minutes, slice what you need and pop it back into the freezer for next time.
