Servings: 1.5 cups
Ingredients
- 1 pound (4 sticks) unsalted butter (preferably organic, grass-fed)
Instructions
- In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, melt the butter over low heat.
- As it simmers, the water will evaporate and the milk solids separate and begin to brown.
- Watch carefully—when the butter turns golden and smells nutty (about 15 to 25 minutes), remove it from heat.
- Strain the liquid through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a clean jar.
- Cool and store with a tight-fitting lid. Ghee can be kept at room temp for months.
