Clarified [[butter]], used in a lot of [[Indian]] [[cooking]]. It is [[salt]] and lactose free, although use it with moderation since it is 100% butterfat. You would probably feel your arteries thickening upon contact with it if you used too much.

#At a very low heat melt 1kg of organic, unsalted [[butter]] (which is how it would have been in [[medjeeval]] times anyway). Make sure it '''does not burn'''. If you see any smoke or ripples on the surface of the butter, turn it down!!
#Once melted, slightly increase the heat, still looking out for any scorching.
#Remain at this point for approximately an hour checking often but not disturbing it. You will see the [[milk]] solids sinking, and foam at the top. Do not disturb this foam.
#After an hour, let it cool about 15 mins.
#Carefully skim any remaining foam or floating substances off the top.
#Filter the remaining clear liquid into a clean jar. You may use cheesecloth, coffee filter or paper towel as a filter.
#Cover and store in a cool place.
