Wash the strawberries thoroughly and remove the stems.
Pat the strawberries dry with a clean kitchen towel to ensure there is no excess moisture.
Place the strawberries into a food processor or blender and pulse until they form a smooth puree.
Using a fine mesh strainer, strain the strawberry puree into a bowl to remove any seeds. Discard the seeds and set the strained puree aside.
In a separate large mixing bowl, add the unsalted butter, which should be softened to room temperature for easy mixing.
Gradually add the strawberry puree to the butter, starting with a few tablespoons at a time. Use a hand mixer or whisk to blend the puree into the butter until fully incorporated.
Once all the puree is mixed in, add the powdered sugar and a pinch of sea salt. Continue mixing until the butter is light, fluffy, and evenly blended.
Taste the strawberry butter and adjust sweetness or salt as needed.
Transfer the strawberry butter to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up before serving.
Serve by spreading on your favorite breads, pastries, or breakfast items. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to one week.
