Pro Tips

  • Make the compound butter ahead of time and keep it in the refrigerator. It's also incredible on baked potatoes, grilled vegetables, steak, seafood, and warm bread. For the smoothest butter, let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before mixing in the chili crisp.
  • Sometimes the best recipes are the simplest. Sweet corn and butter are already a perfect pairing, and Yo Amma Indian Chili Crisp brings crunch, warmth, and layers of savory flavor to every bite. It's an effortless upgrade that turns everyday corn into something memorable.
