Making homemade ghee is a very simple process that can be made in your kitchen with minimum of ingredients. The only ingredient is grass fed unsalted butter that should be melted in a deep wide bottomed skillet over medium heat. Allow it to melt and simmer while stirring occasionally with a long handled spoon. It will take about 20 to 30 minutes when a golden liquid will be visible that is separate from white foam at the top and small bits of milk fat that settle at the bottom. Gently remove and discard the foam with a mesh skimmer. Let is simmer until a golden brown liquid is seen but ensure that it does not burn as there are great chances of ghee burning even if it is a little over cooked. Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature. Spread a muslin cloth in a large mesh strainer over a jar and pour the golden ghee on it. Store it in the jar as it will remain fresh for a few months. At room temperature it will be liquid but if kept in the refrigerator it will become solid. It is recommended to keep the jar sealed tight as it tends to absorb outside flavors. Ghee once thought to be unhealthy has now become one of the seven healthy fats in your kitchen.
