Ingredients
20g dried porcini mushrooms
4 tablespoonsherry
125g/1/2 cup/1 stick butter
1teaspoon salt(or even better a truffle salt)
Instructions
Break/cut the dry porcini mushrooms into small chunks and add them to a small bowl.
Pour over the sherry and allow them to soak for 10 minutes.
Drain mushrooms, saving the liquor for later and squeeze out excess sherry.
Place the mushrooms into the food processor and blitz. Use a spatula to push the sides down and then add the butter and salt.
Add 1 ½ tablespoon of the reserved soaking liquid and pulse blitz until you have a well combined butter.
Lay a large strip of cling film out on the bench , spoon the butter into a rough log onto the long edge of the cling film. (It will take up the centre 3rd of the the cling film. Carefully roll the cling film around the butter, then pinch the ends together and keep rolling it tight until you have a nice tight log.
Tie a quick knot in the ends of the cling film and store it in the fridge.
