    We used to churn our own butter and make ghee once a month at our house. Every time we make ghee, we pour the clear part separately and with the hot ghee with brown bitsin it, we add moringa leaves to it until its crisp then mix the ghee with the brown sediment and the leaves to rice and eat it. we consider the brown bits as a tasty part. My mouth salivates as I come to recollect this. Love from south India chef❤

    Chef Jean, I've been making Ghee for about 3 years now. I really like it. I bought a cast iron kettle like you are using. It's much easier to see the bottom so you don't go to far with the browning of the milk solids. I quite buying salt free butter. When you make the Ghee, you lose most of the salt. I save the settlings and melt a tablespoon or so down and add it to my bun recipe and don't add any extra salt. It works great. I use the half pint wide mouth jars to store it in. I put a jar on the counter and never refrigerate it while using it. Never lasts more than a week on my counter anyway. Works fantastic for frying Northern Pike.. That is the fish I catch most of the time. Once in awhile I get some yellow perch. But always cook it in the Ghee. Keep up the great work. Really enjoy your videos.

  • @johannakamstra-schickendan7380

    We all can learn Monsieur Jean-Pierre, I make my own ghee already for a long time but found a great advise; put your butter in the pan and let it melt on a low fire then after some time put in a thermometer and survey it close until it reaches 110 degrees Celsius pass it trough a cloth into jars and it’s done. When I need ghee I melt it, as you said, in the microwave and put it into a plastic box and keep it in the fridge until I use it. Love you channel.

    In Kerala, quite a few houses have stored Ghee in pots and buried it in their backyard for over a 100 years and yes it will cost a fortune to buy one of those pots.

    The first time I tried to make clarified butter (from a previous Chef JP video) I cooked it a bit too long and made Ghee. For me it was a "happy accident" because the "nutty" flavor was delicious. Thank you for clearing this up Chef: I didn't actually make a mistake (I mean I did, because I made Ghee, not clarified butter, but it was still delicious), I just didn't know I was making Ghee. This is a MUST for every kitchen. Try using Ghee when making Popcorn, and grind up some Kosher salt for the topping. Better than "movie popcorn", I promise you.

    Traditionally in India we use the churning method. After churning the cream starts creating a clump. We remove those clump , collect them and then melt them in a pan. The nutrition value of white butter is far more than that of yellow butter. Its loaded with Vitamin A, free of preservatives and suprisingly it can burn fat if consumed early morning on empty stomach. It is a natural lubricant for joints and muscles. It also works as a antacid if consumed with food generally rice or rotis (flattened bread).

      @@MotinQ Traditional way of ghee making:
      1: Buy 1 ltr full fat milk from milkman everyday.
      2. Boil the milk, dont stir while boiling, a layer of fat will form. We can use the milk without distrubing the upper fat and cream layer.
      3. Let it cool down until when luke warm or until when you can dip your pinky without burning yourself.
      4. Take a spoonful of yogurt and drop it in the milk. Don't mix it.
      5. Keep the milk aside in a warm corner to ferment and set. All of it will turn into yogurt.
      6. Congratulations! This is how yogurt is made.
      7. Now take the upper fatty layer on the yogurt before anyone eat it.
      8. Do this again and again. Store them everyday in refrigerator.
      9. When you have good amount of fatty yogurt layers, churn them in a mixer jar. Use cold water to speed up the process.
      10. After 10 mins or so fat solids will float, seperate them.
      11. Now we made buttermilk. Great probiotic drink, good to beat the heat.
      12. Take all the seperate fat solids and heat it, after sometime they will look like our chef's product.
      13. From here it same as the chef say.
      Its very laborious process but its worth every penny. My mom makes it like this everytime. Ghee is very addictive, delicious and healthier compared to all oils available in market.

    BTW the brown milk protein residue is called बेरी (berry) in my language (Marathi). It is highly nutritious and when mixed with equal amounts of sugar, it tastes wonderful. You can also feed it to your pets.
    Our dogs just love it. When we cook ghee in our house, they know from the smell that a treat is on the way!

    I lost my mother this April. When she was young and well, she used to make Ghee from heavy cream which was again made by her in home from whole milk. Many days long process but the final day when she boiled the cream and made the ghee, our entire house would be fragrant and we salivating. The caramelized milk solids, we call knakdi, was also eaten with hot white rice - a delicacy and the magic touch in my mother's hands. We do not make ghee at home anymore.

Probably going to get more sage, thyme, and rosemary than I can use as I prune, so I’ll probably try this and some herb butters. Any suggestions for infusing the Ghee? Do you add just sprigs to the butter while simmering, or make it a separate step after you’ve separated the Ghee?

  • @KushagraJuneja

    A more traditional way (a North Indian household) to make ghee is to buy whole/full fat milk and boil it. Once it cools, collect the coagulated milk fat from the top using a spoon/fork and separate it. This is typically what is called heavy cream, in India, we tend to call it "malai". Put this malai into a saucepan and heat it to boiling, and then simmer (important) till the fat separates (typically 45mins - 1h). The solid will sink. Just decant the liquid (while still hot) and strain, and voila, you have ghee. Here's another neat lil trick. Put some salt and flour on the solid that has settled and knead it into a pasta-like dough; roll it out, put it on a pan, flip it a couple times and now you have ghee ki roti (flatbread made with ghee) - Amazingly flavourful with the goodness and nutrition of ghee. No wastage. :)

    Again, what can I say? The nutty professor strikes. I have made clarified butter a bit but last week I made ghee. The one problem I had, and this will help those who are doing this for the first time, is to size. Many of us are probably not using 2 lbs of butter maybe half of that. I have a french butter bell I love but it holds around a stick and a half. I could make more and store it somewhere like ice box but We are often low on space. So I put my butter (1.5 sticks) in too large of a pot. And what happens…it boils to fast and the edges burn. It tasted fine, quite nutty, but was a bit dark for presentation purposes. I should have used a very small pot. But I don’t have one anymore. I think my wife gave it away. In any event the ghee was great and I love seeing JP making it.
