Butter Spread for Grilled Corn or Anything Else

Here is a great butter spread I found in an issue of Bon Appetit magazine.  This recipe is for 8 ears of corn.  I recommend you mix up a batch and bring to room temperature for any occasion not just grilled corn.  How about french bread or over vegetables.  Yum Yum.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
• 2 TB (⅛ cup) finely chopped fresh chives

• 1/2 teas. fresh lime zest
• 1/2 teas. fine sea salt
• 1/4 teas. Hungarian Sweet Paprika (any sweet paprika will do)
• Pinch of Cayenne Pepper to taste (add this once all other ingredients have been added so you can taste.

Procedure

• Mix first six ingredients in a medium bowl. 
• Add Cayenne Pepper to taste
• Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and chill.  
• Bring to room temperature and stir before using.
