Ingredients
  • Unsalted butter

Directions
  1. Melt the butter in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat.
  2. Allow the butter to come to the boil.
  3. Do not stir.
  4. Scrape off the foam and scum that float to the edges of the pot.
  5. When the butter stops bubbling, remove from the heat.
  6. Allow it to settle for a few seconds, scraping off all the remaining foam.
  7. Pour the butter into a heatproof container.
  8. Be very careful when pouring the fat - you will notice a bit of opaque goo at the bottom of the pot. This is the remaining milk protein from the butter. It is very important that you don't get any of this goo into the jar. It's best to leave a bit of ghee in the pot than to contaminate the whole jar.
