  • Hello There Friends, Today, I am making Ghee for you all! After the Clarified Butter video, many of you asked what the difference between Clarified Butter and Ghee is. In this video, I explain the differences between the two and which one is used in certain cuisines. Come and learn how to make Ghee with me! Let me know what you think in the comments below!
    RECIPE: 2 pounds (900 g) of whole butter will yield just about 4 cups (1 liter) of GHEE!

    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).

    • @Rahul_Singh100

    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.

    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.

    That's the man who loves the cooking and it loves him back. I'm not that devote to the process itself, but I love cooking for my family. I didn't cook something fancy, but home rustic and simple cooking have it's own joys. Soups, pasta, fish, stews and so much more. It may be simple, but fulfilling anyway. Also even if I didn't use your recipies I definitely using some basics and techniques, because basics matters the most in any craft. And it also nice to see someone who enjoy cooking and sharing his wisdom so much.

      @@chittich I have seen several preparations made by chefs of Indian origin, and none of them have used 10 kilos of butter to reduce it to 1 kilo. All of them have made a preparation very similar to that made by chef Jean-Pierre.

      @@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.

    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.

    As an Indian , the Ghee we get from Indian cow, we also call them ‘desi cow’ or A2 cow, is like a medicine and are the best. We keep it in clay pots , and eat fresh. For me nothing tests better than a desi fresh ghee. Not to mention the health benefits if eaten in moderate way.

      @@robinmitchell4721 If he uses it then it must have a lid. Whether clay lid or wooden. Not everyone keeps it in clay pot though. Clay pot will soak it and may give it an earthy smell. Though I am not surprised if some do for that kind of flavour. I myself like milk preparations served in clay at times. But I haven't experimented with it much beyond occasional tea or milk or some milk sweet.

    I love your video Chef John, and I'm glad you brought out the differences between ghee and regular clarified ghee. People always ask what my specialty is, and for savory food it is Indian cooking. It was the "last frontier" for me and when I first started I was very intimidated at the amount of spices , so it took me a while to get comfortable cooking with it. So for those out there who are trying to cook indian food, don't give up. I was fortunate to have found a website run by two Indian ladies in america and they make Indian food look much easier to cook. I taught cooking lessons at a college (which I loved) and am now retired (I miss teaching)😪But your videos are wonderful !
