How to Make Compound Butter
Compound butters are also great for stuffing under the skin of a chicken or turkey before roasting. The options are really endless - my favorite though:
- Grind dried porcini mushrooms into a fine powder, fold into the butter with thyme, parsley, garlic, lemon zest, sea salt and pepper. When the roast cooks, the butter melts and the porcini mushrooms rehydrate with the juices from the bird - the smell and flavors are incredibly rich!

I use ground up porcinis (I just grind in a food processor), garlic, shallot, herbs and truffle oil in compound butter which I stuff under the skin of chicken before I roast it. The porcini dust reconstitutes with chicken juices and butter - it doesn't suck ;-)
