"Favourite Person" - Café de Paris

Favourite Person, the Café de Paris in a gift tin

Favourite Person is our Café de Paris in a special edition with its own band label, a gift for someone whose taste you value. Café de Paris is the most mysterious herb blend in European cooking, originally developed for the famous Café de Paris butter served with entrecôte. Shallots, mustard, tarragon, chervil, tomato flakes, seaweed and Mediterranean herbs form a layered aroma that unfolds especially well in butter. We mix it in our manufactory in Klingenberg am Main.

How to use

Favourite Person unfolds best in butter. Mix the blend with soft butter into the classic Café de Paris butter, season steaks and pan-fried dishes with it, scatter it over fried potatoes and roasted vegetables, or pair it with asparagus in spring.

Good to know: Café de Paris is a herb blend without salt. Salt your dish to taste, in the butter a pinch is usually enough.
