Nasturtium Butter

Cook's Customer Mixed Nasturtiums make a lovely garnish, but the peppery flavor of their flowers and the leaves makes an especially colorful butter that goes well with all kinds of vegetables.

1 stick butter
6 Nasturtium flowers
6 Nasturtium leaves


Soften 1 stick butter to room temperature. Finely chop 6 Nasturtium flowers along with 6 Nasturtium leaves. Beat together with the butter and chill in a bowl or make a roll by spreading the butter onto waxed paper or aluminum foil. Form a long tube shape and twist the ends closed. Freeze, and slice when as needed.
