Are butter boards the new food trend?

Ingredients

• 2 cups Unsalted Butter (high‑quality, softened but not melted)
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 2 tablespoons Mixed Fresh Herbs (parsley, chives, dill; finely chopped)
• 1 teaspoon Rose Water (optional, for floral flavor)
• 1 cup Seedless Grapes (halved)
• 1 cup Strawberries (sliced)
• 0.5 cup Walnuts (chopped)
• 0.5 teaspoon Sea Salt (sprinkled on top)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh Mint Leaves (roughly torn)
• 2 tablespoons Honey (drizzled over the board)

Instructions

1. Soften Butter

   Place the butter in a mixing bowl and cover it with a pre‑heated bowl (filled with hot water, then emptied). Let sit for about 5 minutes until the butter is soft but not melted.

   Time: PT5M

2. Infuse Butter

   Add the minced garlic, chopped herbs, and optional rose water to the softened butter. Mix thoroughly with a spatula until the aromatics are evenly distributed.

   Time: PT5M

3. Prepare Toppings

   Wash grapes and strawberries, halve the grapes, slice the strawberries, chop the walnuts, and tear the mint leaves. Pat all fruit dry with a paper towel.

   Time: PT10M

4. Assemble Butter Board

   Spread the infused butter onto the serving board, creating an even layer. Sprinkle sea salt over the butter, then artistically arrange grapes, strawberries, walnuts, and mint leaves. Drizzle honey over the top.

   Time: PT5M

5. Serve

   Allow the board to sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes so flavors meld, then serve with fresh bread, crackers, or toast.
