Homemade Ghee
Ghee is simply clarified butter and it's great for high heat cooking. It's incredibly easy to make and keeps for quite some time!
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup salted butter, (1 stick)
Equipment
- Small fine mesh strainer optional
Instructions
- In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter, stirring occasionally. Continue cooking until milk solids separate and float and the butter is just starting to foam. Remove from heat.1/2 cup salted butter
- Remove the milk solids by skimming them off with a spoon or strain through small fine mesh strainer. Add the liquid to a small jar.
- When the ghee has cooled, top with a lid and store at room temperature. Use for searing or in any place you'd use butter.
Notes
Unsalted butter will work, but consider adding 1/4 tsp kosher salt.
