What's the difference between Ghee & Butter?
GHEE IS ACTUALLY A FORM OF CLARIFIED BUTTER!
While ghee and butter share similarities, they are not identical. Ghee is a type of clarified butter, in which both water and milk solids are removed. However, the specific processes and resulting products differ slightly.
CLARIFIED BUTTER:
- Made by melting butter and allowing the water to evaporate
- Milk solids separate and are removed
- Process stops when the butterfat is clear
- Butter is 82% butterfat, 17% water, 1% milk solids
- Made by melting butter and allowing the water to evaporate
GHEE:
- Starts with the same process as clarified butter
- Continues to cook long after the water has evaporated
- Milk solids brown slightly before going through a filtration process, removing the lactose
- The final flavor is deeper and nuttier, with a slightly more golden color
- Higher filtration than clarified butter
- Ghee is 100% butterfat after clarification
