Why This Recipe Works

Flavored butters jazz up a variety of vegetable recipes. Instead of laying sticks of butter on the counter to soften, we stood the sticks on their ends—more surface area was exposed to the room-temperature air, so the butter softened faster. Just a small amount of scallion was enough to flavor our Barbecue-Scallion Butter recipe.
