What began as a house recipe for the legendary Café de Paris butter in Geneva, we distil in our workshop in Klingenberg am Main into more than 20 herbs and spices: tarragon, chervil, chives, savory, dill, marjoram, parsley, thyme, rosemary, paprika, turmeric, seaweed and more. The profile: complex and herby, lightly sea-savoury from the seaweed, with a fine heat from chili and a tart-citrus depth that turns steaks, white asparagus and grilled poultry into a classic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4 style=\"margin-top: 2em; margin-bottom: 0.8em;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to use\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe classic is Café de Paris butter: soak 25 g of the blend with 25 ml Worcestershire sauce and 75 ml water overnight, then work into 350 g of soft room-temperature butter, shape into a roll and chill. In light wine sauces for plaice, sole or salmon, stir in a teaspoon just before serving without cooking it in.
