We love compound butters because they are a versatile way to add flavor to existing sauces, serve as a flavorful condiment or topping or, melted, become a sauce in themselves. This version makes use of dukkah, a tangy, woody Egyptian seasoning mixture that is made of toasted nuts, herbs and spices and is used to flavor proteins or served with olive oil as a dip for pita bread. Here we’ve mixed dukkah with softened butter that is then re-chilled. It is ideal for a quick sauce for meats or even vegetables but one of our favorite uses is to melt the Dukkah Compound Butter and use it to baste sunny-side up eggs to complete their cooking while infusing flavor.
