Is it "burnt butter" or "burnt butter hazelnuts" which could be a posh name for toasted hazelnuts? 'A toasted hazelnut by any other name would taste as sweet.' Or not..... I hate pretentious food too.

Some butter that the chef has taken a blowtorch to?
Am a bit tired of all this pretentious stuff on menus, don't know about anyone else.

Wild mushrooms on toast, Eden Valley brie, burnt butter, hazelnuts

What on earth is burnt butter ?
