First off, you will need butter. I usually use unsalted butter just so I can control the amount of salt in the finished product, but if you prefer salted then use that. Make sure this is at room temperature or you will have a heck of a time mixing in the flavors.
Then you will need herbs and spices or whatever you wish to flavor the butter with. In this video, I make two variations. The first has minced garlic, basil, thyme, minced onion, and salt. The second has mushroom powder, minced garlic, and minced onion.
In my video, I used a food processor to mix the butter and flavorings together. My poor food processor has seen better days and I am looking into replacing it. Now if you don't own one, don't let that stop you from making it. You can also use a stand mixer or a hand mixer, whichever you have available and depending on how much you are making at one time. If you are making only a small amount, the hand mixer may work better since a stand mixer may have difficulty with a small amount.
Now just because I am making savory items, doesn't mean that is what you are limited to. I fully intend on making some more sweet ones that can be used on toast or what not. When I made these savory ones, I didn't have any dehydrated fruit available to mix in. That will come once fruit is in season again.
