Made some ghee. Used the Pioneer Womans recipe.
In summary:
Starting to foam, skim as much as you can off
Skimmed off foam
Here the milk solids are starting to separate. Here would be clarified butter.
The brown milk solids
5 sticks gave me just under 2 cups. It looks burnt but according to her recipe its not.
In summary:
- Place butter in a heavy-bottomed pan.
- Melt over medium-low heat.
- When the whey floats to the top, skim it off. Reserve or compost.
- When the milk fat sinks to the bottom and the butter turns clear, you’ve made clarified butter.
- When the milk fats brown and become fragrant, you’ve made ghee.
- Allow to cool slightly and strain through cheesecloth into a very clean jar.
- Store at room temperature.
