It is composed of butter and garlic pounded into a paste. These ingredients are well blended and chilled before use.

Dipping sauce

In the United States, garlic butter in small cups is sometimes served with seafood (such as lobster), pizza, or breadsticks as a dip. To prolong shelf life, the dip may use clarified butter or flavored oils rather than real butter.
