Homemade Ghee — Indian recipe
Homemade Ghee, photographed for the Kitchen Pantri cookbook.

Homemade Ghee

Golden, nutty clarified butter, made by simmering unsalted butter until its water cooks away and the milk solids toast, then straining it clear. It's a staple of Indian cooking, with a high smoke point that's perfect for tadkas, dal and frying, and it needs only one ingredient and about 20 minutes.
