Garlic-Cilantro Butter

Cooks' Note

These flavored butters can be prepared using other herbs, like dill and marjoram. If you want to serve butter over individual steaks, unwrap the log and cut round pats of butter. Replace the roll in the refrigerator and put 1 pat over each steak as it is served.
