This is a great way to add new flavor and excitement to plain old vegan butter. You can also use this technique with any fresh or dried herb you like – other nice options would be thyme, rosemary, or basil. A pat of this lovely herbed butter would be great on scrambled tofu, vegan quiches, or stirred into mashed potatoes.
