Equipment
Method
- In a medium sized, very heavy saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat
- The butter will turn frothy, lower the heat and simmer until most the foam evaporates
- The butter will begin to bubble quite a lot, stir occasionally
- When the butter changes from yellow to a clear golden brown with the milk solids at the bottom of the pan the Ghee is done
- Remove from the heat and let cool slightly
- Skim any remaining foam or bubbles from the top
- Very gently, as not to disturb any of the milk solids on the bottom of the pan, strain through a fine mesh sieve into a glass jar
- Let cool to room temperature before putting lid on
Notes
Can be left at room temperature for up to 3 months and in the refrigerator for up to 1 year.
Ghee can be used to sauté and fry at very high temperatures and has a high smoke point.
