Rosmarinsmör Rosemary Butter Recipes

ROSMARINSMöR (ROSEMARY BUTTER)

Steps:

• Start by beating butter until soft. Add rosemary, garlic, and pepper to the butter. Shape into a roll and wrap tightly in plastic wrap.
• Refrigerate until firm.

BALSAMIC-ROSEMARY BUTTER

Steps:

• Combine the vinegar and peppercorns in a small saucepan over high heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced to 1/4 cup, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the peppercorns, whisk in the honey and rosemary and let cool to room temperature.
• Combine the balsamic mixture with the butter and 1 teaspoon salt in a food processor or with a mixer until smooth. Scrape into a bowl and refrigerate 30 minutes to set slightly.

ROSEMARY-BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the shallot; cook until the shallot has softened and turned translucent, about 3 minutes. Pour in the wine, cream, chicken broth, and lemon juice. Simmer until the liquid has reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Stir in the rosemary, season to taste with salt.

ROSEMARY BREAD

Steps:

• Stir together yeast and the warm water in the bowl of an electric mixer. Let stand until foamy, about 7 minutes.
• Add 3/4 cup water, the olive oil, sugar, salt, chopped rosemary, 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, and the whole-wheat flour to bowl. Fit mixer with the dough hook; mix on low speed until dough comes together, about 1 minute. Raise speed to medium-high; mix until dough is smooth and elastic, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Lightly oil a large bowl. Shape dough into a ball, and transfer to oiled bowl. Loosely cover with plastic wrap. Let dough rise in a warm, draft-free spot until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
• Punch down the dough; let rest, covered, 15 minutes. Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface, and divide in half.
• Roll one piece into an 11-inch-long loaf. Gently twist dough to create contours, then tuck ends underneath. Transfer to a baking sheet. Press half the rosemary leaves into loaf. Repeat with remaining piece of dough.
• Loosely cover baking sheet with plastic wrap, and let loaves rise slightly in a warm, draft-free spot 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Dust loaves with remaining teaspoon all-purpose flour. Bake until golden, about 30 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.

ROSEMARY BUTTER COOKIES

Steps:

• Put butter and granulated sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; mix on medium speed until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Mix in whole egg and vanilla. Reduce speed to low. Add flour, rosemary, and salt, and mix until combined.
• Halve dough; shape each half into a log. Place each log on a 12-by-16-inch sheet of parchment. Roll in parchment to 1 1/2 inches in diameter, pressing a ruler along edge of parchment at each turn to narrow log. Transfer to paper-towel tubes to hold shape, and freeze until firm, about 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 375. Brush each log with egg white; roll in sanding sugar. Cut into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Space 1 inch apart on baking sheets lined with parchment. Bake until edges are golden, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool on sheets on wire racks. Store in airtight containers at room temperature up to 3 days.

SALMON WITH GARLIC-ROSEMARY BUTTER

Steps:
