Golden Butter for Holiday Poultry

Melt the butter over low heat until the foam is removed.

Strain the melted butter through a sieve to obtain clarified butter.

Blend the clarified butter with the remaining ingredients, except for the poultry, in a blender.

Gently loosen the skin of the holiday poultry and spread the butter mixture all over the bird.

Place the poultry in a clean bag, tie it shut, and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 12 hours.

Roast the poultry on an oven-safe tray, cover it with aluminum foil, and bake for one hour at 200°C (392°F).

Remove the aluminum foil and allow the poultry to brown for approximately 30 minutes.
