How to Make Ghee at Home, Pure and Simple

Directions

1. Take a heavy bottom saucepan. Put your block of butter in it and heat over medium-low heat.
2. Let the butter melt slowly and then come to a boil.
3. Let it boil for some minutes, occasionally scrape a spoon over the bottom of the pan to check the color of the residue that's collecting at the bottom of the pan.
4. When it has turned a nice nutty brown color, like walnut shells (this might take about 10 minutes), then turn off heat and remove your pan from the stove.
5. The darker the color of the residue, darker will be your ghee, nuttier will be the taste. But careful! Don't let it burn.
6. Let it sit undisturbed for five minutes.
7. Strain the ghee into a clean and dry jar through a tea-strainer or a piece of fine cheesecloth.
8. Store in the fridge for unlimited shelf-life. Will keep on the counter-top for at least a month.
