Butter Club Notes

Sometimes the simplest recipes end up being the ones you use the most. I almost always keep a container of seasoned flour around because it saves time when dinner comes together at the last minute. It's not trying to be a complete breading mix—it just gives vegetables and plant-based proteins a solid foundation before the rest of the flavors take over. Once it's mixed, you'll probably reach for it more often than you expect.

Seasoned Country Flour

This plain seasoned flour is a small piece of prep that pays off when dinner moves fast. A light dusting gives tofu or vegetables a savory start before the rest of the breading.
