Mint Butter

Mint grows so well in my garden that I’ve recently had to give it its own separate patch away from my main garden.

Using mint in butters, breads, and jellies was more popular in our grandparents’ time than in our, but the taste is just as distinct and delicious now as it was then. This mint butter recipe uses freshly picked mint from the garden and a bit of lemon juice to give it an extra tang. Tastes great on fish, toast, and on mashed potatoes.
