Shallot and Garlic Butter
Flavoured butters are some of the easiest gifts to make and will be much appreciated when you include gift tags outlining their possibilities: slice and melt over fish or steak, blend into mashed potatoes or vegetables, toss with pasta or rice, or melt and pour over sautéed shrimp (one of the mini-logs is enough for 1-1/2 lb/750 g large shrimp).
