Chopped parsley or pimiento added to melted butter is wonderful for broiled fish fillets. Melt two tablespoons butter in a saucepan; stir in two tablespoons chopped parsley or pimiento. It’s a bright color accent and taste treat on vegetables, too. Flavored butter adds extra character! Try orange butter. Beat together one teaspoon grated orange peel, two tablespoons orange juice, one-quarter cup confectioners’ sugar and one-half cup butter It’s great on muffins, pancakes, toast and waffles.
