Clarified butter adds a lovely nutty flavour to pan fried and baked dishes.
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 45 minutes
Total Time 55 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 250 g unsalted butter

Equipment

  • 1 glass jar
  • 1 cheesecloth
  • 1 small strainer

Method
 

  1. Place the butter in a medium size pot, with a heavy base, on low heat on the stove. The melted butter will start to foam and bubble, continue to watch the pot as it remains on low heat.
  2. Once the foam starts to separate, gently skim the foam into a small bowl. Once the liquid turns a light golden brown, remove the pan from the heat.
  3. Allow to cool for a few minutes before pouring into a jar through a cheesecloth on a sieve. Continue to cool with the lid off. Once the jar has reached room temperature, put the lid on and store in the refrigerator. Enjoy!
