1 tsp freshly ground pepper (coarsely ground)
1 cup unsalted butter (room temp (2 sticks))
1 pinch flaky sea salt (approx 1 tsp, or to taste)
6 cloves roasted garlic
1 lemon ((zest only))
1 slice red onion
1 tsp maple syrup
fresh herbs (of choice, such as thyme, parsley, or sage)
2 baguettes (sliced to serve, or bread of choice)

Langkah-langkah

Lightly toast the freshly ground pepper in a dry pan over low heat for 30 seconds to 1 minute, stirring constantly. This will warm the peppercorns and release an immense peppery flavor. Remove the pepper from the pan so it doesn’t burn and set aside.
Place the butter in a bowl and use a silicone spatula or wooden spoon to lightly cream. The butter should be smooth and spreadable, but not at all melty.
Use the back of a spoon to smoosh and swirl the butter onto a board or plate.
Layer on the sliced red onions and sprinkle with herbs. Drizzle some maple syrup on top. Finish by sprinkling generously with flaky sea salt, lemon zest, and the toasted cracked black pepper.
Serve with warm baguettes and butter knives so everyone can scoop and spread. Enjoy!
