Description

Café de Paris Butter is a rich, herb-infused compound butter traditionally served over grilled steak. Packed with spices, herbs, and savory ingredients, it melts into a flavorful sauce atop hot meat.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 small shallot, finely minced
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon capers, finely chopped
  • 2 anchovy fillets, finely minced
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine all ingredients with the softened butter. Mix thoroughly until everything is evenly incorporated.
  2. Spoon the butter mixture onto a sheet of plastic wrap and form it into a log shape. Wrap tightly and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until firm.
  3. Slice into rounds and serve over hot grilled steak, allowing the butter to melt into a sauce.
  4. Store any unused butter in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or freeze for longer storage.

Notes

  • Use high-quality butter for the best flavor.
  • This butter also pairs well with chicken, fish, or vegetables.
  • Let the butter sit at room temperature for a few minutes before slicing for easier handling.
