How To Make Your Own Homemade Ghee!

Ingredients

  • 1 lb pasture-raised butter
  • cheesecloth

Instructions

  • Heat a saucepan over medium-low heat and add in the butter.
  • Once melted, reduce the heat to a LOW and gently simmer the butter until white solids float to the top.
  • Using a spoon, patiently skim all of the solids from the surface and discard.
  • Once the surface solids are removed, you'll have clarified butter.
  • Continue to simmer the clarified butter until it turns golden brown, with some brown bits that sink down to the bottom of the pan, about 4-5 minutes.
  • At this point the ghee should smell nutty, then you'll know it's done.
  • Remove from the heat, then strain through a few layers of cheesecloth.
  • Allow your ghee to cool, then transfer into a clean jar with lid.
  • Keep your ghee refrigerated for up to 1 year.
  • Use this for cooking, frying, roasting or baking.
