In her now-viral video, Justine goes into a bit more detail, and kicks things off by “swirling softened unsalted butter” onto a wooden snack tray board.
Next, she adds a “generous amount of lemon zest and sea salt” to the butter – YUM. And then, she adds some fig preserve dollops all over the butter, fresh slices of figs, hot drizzles of honey, and crushed walnuts for a crunchy, which she says “feels really communal.”
Essentially, the idea is to spread butter onto a board, add all of your favorite toppings, and scoop it all up again with bread.
Sounds like pretty much heaven? I know.
Turns out, so does the rest of the world – as you will no doubt realise if you type in the hashtag #butterboards into either TikTok or Instagram, where the hashtag has already generated close to 10 million views, as of this writing.
