Just when we thought butter couldn't be improved, Instagram reminds us that flavoured butters are one of food’s greatest gifts. We’ve seen all kinds of flavours lately, from a herby butter to roast onion-and-miso and schmaltzy chicken skin butter topped with crispy chicken bits. Use it to baste grilled veggies or meat or smear over fresh bread.
