Cilantro Lime Compound Butter

Ingredients

• 1 cup heavy cream
• zest of 1 lime
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
• 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• pinch salt

Directions

1. Use your Manual Kitchen Kit to zest the lime (mandoline attachment with small grater) and chop the cilantro (chopping blade attachment).
2. Remove the attachments and insert the beater. Sprinkle in the chili flakes and salt, then pour in the cream.
3. Secure the lid, then turn the handle to beat, about five minutes, until texture is consistent with butter. At around 2 minutes, you'll have whipped cream. At 3 minutes the cream will separate. And at 5, it will be whipped into butter.
4. You can simply scrape it into a bowl and refrigerate it until you're ready to use it at this point. You can also mold it by using plastic wrap to squeeze it together and use your hands to roll it into a cylinder or shape it into a ball.

This technique can be used to make all types of butter, not just Cilantro Lime Butter. Tip: Try the Cilantro Lime Butter on cornbread (like we did), grilled chicken, fish, shrimp or roasted corn.
