Ingredients

Here is what you need at a glance, along with some important ingredient notes:

a bowl of vegan butter, some fresh Italian parsley, 6 garlic cloves, and a small bowl of red chili pepper flakes.

Garlic - I recommend using fresh garlic for that true bitey garlic flavor. I don't recommend using prechopped garlic in a jar unless you're in a pinch and absolutely can't get fresh.
Vegan butter - You can use homemade vegan butter or storebought. Make sure it's a good quality butter that you like the taste of.
Parsley - This can be fresh or dried. Fresh looks best if you're entertaining and it has a brighter flavor. Dried has a stronger, more concentrated flavor. I like to use a bit of both.
Optional chili flakes - I love a little pop of spice in my garlic butter so I always add a pinch or two of chili flakes.

How To Use Garlic Butter

Some of my favorite ways to enjoy garlic butter include:

On garlic bread
Tossed through freshly cooked spaghetti with lashings of black pepper and vegan parmesan.
Drizzled over fluffy cooked rice.
Melted or brushed onto vegan seafood, steak, or chick'n.
Mashed into potatoes or melted onto potatoes.
Melted on vegetables. I especially love it with green beans, mushrooms, and corn on the cob!
Brushed over fresh from the oven vegan dinner rolls or sweet potato biscuits.
