Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
Take a good butter, preferably rustic, if store-bought, then the highest fat content, usually 82.5%.
Step 2:
Chop the butter into pieces. Put it in a saucepan in which you will melt it. It is convenient to use pots for a microwave oven - they are inserted into one another.
Step 3:
Pour a little water into a larger pot - it depends on the volume and height of your pots. Place a pan of oil in it and put it on the fire.
Step 4:
When the water boils, turn down the heat and leave the water to simmer. The oil will gradually begin to melt.
Step 5:
When all the butter has melted, white foam will begin to form on its surface - this is also a very valuable food product, do not throw it away in any case. You can immediately put it in sauce or porridge, spread it on a bun. Boil the oil until it becomes transparent, the serum settles at the bottom, and a new foam ceases to form on top. Leave the oil for 2-3 hours at room temperature.
Step 6:
Remove the foam with a wooden spoon. And now you can carefully strain the oil - place the gauze folded in several layers in a strainer and, trying not to disturb the layer, strain the oil.
Step 7:
If part of the serum has slipped into the jar, it's not scary when the oil freezes, make a hole and drain it. Store melted butter from butter at home in glass or ceramic dishes, in a dark place - vitamins disappear in fermented milk products in the light.
Melted butter from butter has been known since ancient times. During the excavations, archaeologists found ceramic amphorae with melted butter made several centuries ago. And the oil has not lost its main properties.
Today I propose the most gentle way of cooking ghee - in a water bath. This method eliminates burning, and is the cleanest production.
