French Onion Butter

Butter is wonderful on its own, but when you blend it with slow‑caramelized onions, garlic, herbs, and a splash of Worcestershire, it transforms into something extraordinary: French Onion Butter. Rich, aromatic, and deeply flavorful, this spread is perfect for slathering on bread, melting over steaks, or adding a gourmet touch to roasted vegetables.
