Popovers with Smoked Anchovy Butter
The butter makes popovers seem extra luxe.
Ingredients
for the popovers:
- 1 1/4 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 4 eggs
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
for the butter:
- 8 oz butter, at room temperature
- 1 1.75 oz tin smoked anchovy filets
- 2 huge cloves garlic
- 1/4 cup coarsely chopped curly parsley
- salt
- freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
for the butter:
- Place all ingredients in a small food processor and pulse until smooth. Scrape into an air-tight container, and refrigerate until solid, about 6 hrs or overnight. Allow to sit out about 20 minutes to soften to a spreadable texture before serving.
for the popovers:
- Preheat oven to 425. Place the popover (or cupcake) pan in the oven to heat.
- Whisk together all ingredients to form a thin batter. Pour into wells, filling each halfway. Bake 30 minutes without opening the oven.
- Serve immediately with the butter.
