Butter Boards: the new charcuterie competition?

A viral social media trend gets a fun test-drive on WWAY's Good Morning Carolina

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — Despite the rising cost of butter in grocery stores, the butter board trend shows no sign of melting on the internet.

A recent feature on Good Morning America prompted  WWAY’s Good Morning Carolina co-host Donna Gregory to create one for the team to try.

Here’s the recipe:

1-1/2 sticks unsalted butter–softened, and spread on a board or platter

Sprinkle over the butter:

Flaky Sea Salt (to taste)

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Zest of 1 lemon, chopped finely

2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil

1 teaspoon each of chopped fresh chives, fresh rosemary, and cracked pepper

1 tablespoon olive oil, for drizzling

Use slices of warm ciabatta bread, baguettes, French bread or any other sturdy bread for dipping. Enjoy!
