Habanero Butter Ala Jump Up and Kiss Me

 

Recipe By : Jennifer Trainer Thompson, Jump Up and Kiss Me

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1/2 cup unsalted butter -- softened

1 red habanero chile -- (fresh)stemmed,

seeded, and minced

1 red cayenne pepper -- or jalapeno chile,

(fresh) stemmed, seeded, and minced

 

With a fork, mash the chiles into the butter. Transfer to a small bowl or

ramekin for serving, cover, and refrigerate until firm. Use within a few

days, or wrap tightly and freeze for up to several weeks.

 

Terrific brushed on cheese sandwiches before grilling, tucked into baked

squash, or served with bread. Although habaneros of any color will suffice,

the orange and red ones provide flecks of color. (Some people also contend

that red habaneros are the hottest.) The habanero contributes a fruity,

back-of-the-mouth heat, while the cayenne lends a lip-smacking quality to

this butter.
