Notes

If you have trouble finding bone marrow, you can ask your butcher for it or try finding it at a specialty meat shop.

If you don’t have any fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs instead. Just be sure to reduce the amount you use, as dried herbs are more concentrated in flavor than fresh herbs.

You can use any type of unsalted butter in this recipe, including salted butter if that’s all you have on hand. Just be sure to adjust the amount of salt you add to the bone marrow butter accordingly.
