Compound butters are a terrific way to add something exotic to your meals. This Black Garlic Butter is great for steak, vegetables and even bread!

Black garlic has a sweet and savory flavor. If you have ever roasted garlic, you can get an inkling of how sweet garlic can actually taste. Also consider caramelized onions. They, too, sweeten when slowly cooked and browned.

You can use black garlic a number of different ways, from chopping it up and adding it to pasta. You can even schmear it on toast or pizza.

I decided to make a delicious compound butter with this black garlic. Compound butters are easy to make and can make a simple appetizer of garlic bread something special. You can use it as a butter for bread, or even use to top a steak, roasted chicken or even roast turkey.

Whip together one bulb of black garlic with one stick of butter and you have something super special and spooky enough for Halloween!

Black garlic is not just available in October, but all year long. It is a specialty item that might take some hunting to find. But when you do, you’ll soon see what all the fuss is about!
