Does anyone know what herbs are used in the herb butter  
appleby’s restaurant uses to stirfry their squash-carrot-onion medley?

I love this stuff and would like to duplicate it at home. I don’t think there is any thyme, rosemary, cilantro, oregano in it but can’t figure out what is in there.

I don’t have any idea, but you might check [http://www.topsecretrecipes.com](http://www.topsecretrecipes.com). They often have recipes for sauces etc.  
Good luck! And did you ask your server? Maybe s/he could tell you…(if you didn’t, now you have an excuse to go back.)
