I'm not a big fan of the lemon butter. I found it to be a bit too sour for my taste.

These flavored butters are a great way to use up leftover herbs. I always have a bunch of parsley and basil in my fridge, so I love to make herb butter.

I'm not a huge fan of butter, but I have to admit that these flavored butters are delicious. I've used the lemon butter on fish and the garlic butter on chicken and they were both amazing.
