  • Scrape butter mixture out onto a piece of plastic wrap or parchment paper; use plastic wrap to shape into a log about 1 inch in diameter. Wrap in plastic wrap; chill until firm, about 1 hour.

  • Unwrap log, and cut into 1/4-inch slices. Bring to room temperature before using.

Make Ahead

Place anchovy butter slices in a single layer on a parchment paper–lined baking sheet. Cover and freeze until very firm, at least 2 hours. Transfer frozen butter slices to an airtight freezer-proof container until ready to use. Butter slices may be refrigerated up to 5 days and frozen up to 6 months.

Serve With

This recipe can be served with warm bread, spread on top of roasted oysters, or used to season warm meats or vegetables.
