Molho Manteiga, or butter sauce, is a rich and creamy sauce commonly found in Portuguese and Brazilian cuisines, though it is also similar to butter-based sauces in French cooking. The sauce typically combines melted butter with garlic, onion, parsley, and sometimes lemon juice or white wine for added flavor. Its simplicity makes it versatile, often served over grilled meats, fish, or vegetables. While Molho Manteiga is celebrated for its rich and silky texture, its high butter content also means it is calorie-dense and high in saturated fats, which should be consumed in moderation. On the positive side, it provides fat-soluble vitamins like A, D, and E from the butter, as well as micronutrients like vitamin C and antioxidants from herbs like parsley. To balance indulgence with health, consider pairing it with lean proteins and nutrient-dense vegetables.
