Homemade Ghee (clarified butter)
Think you like butter? Try ghee! It's great for cooking at high temps, and can take the place of butter on just about anything.
Ghee is a form of clarified butter, which is just butter without the milk/dairy solids in it. It’s those solids that cause butter to scorch at a high temperature, which is why butter is not your best bet for sautéing or frying at high temperatures. However, with the solids removed, ghee has a higher smoke point even than olive oil and coconut oil, and those high temperatures become your friend again.
And it’s not just for cooking with. You can use ghee in any way you might use butter: spread on bread or toast or melted as a topping for meats or vegetables.
