Homemade Ghee and Clarified Butter Recipe

The initial steps to make clarified butter and ghee are exactly the same. To make ghee, you simply take the process a bit further. When butter is heated, it separates into three layers, at which point it can be strained to make clarified butter. If you continue to heat the butter to allow more of the water content to evaporate and the milk solids to brown, you end up with ghee, fat with a slightly nutty flavor, a high smoke point and an extended shelf life.
