Maitre d'Hotel Butter Recipe image

This maitre d'hotel butter recipe, sometimes called hotel butter or compound butter, is a deliciously rich accompaniment to steak or seafood dishes. A wonderful cook I knew many years ago used a very similar version of this herbed butter when she prepared her locally celebrated escargots de Bourgogne.
