Method
1. Rinse small bunches of herbs carefully in cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Now chop each herb very finely on a chopping board, keeping each herb seperate.
2. Cut the unsalted butter into medium-sized pieces and allow to soften at room temperature. Sprinkle a little sat over the herbs. This will help to crush the hers and release their flavor.
3. Mix the herbs with the softened butter using a spatula. When thoroughly mixed together, pack into decorative containers and chill in the refrigerator until required.
