Clarified Butter

In the fridge, yeah. I have made it in the past but now I just buy it premade. A jar lasts maybe a year.

It’s butter without the water and some milk fat. Is it really that big of a deal?

@LuFins-Dad butter has a relatively low smoke point. Getting rid of all the milk solids changes that.
I wonder if it'll make a difference in taste vs canola, or another, oil.
One YouTuber I saw said she uses salted butter to make ghee...

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

Ghee has much higher smoke point, but also significantly more saturated fat per unit vokume.

It does make a big difference in taste. You don’t usually use enough that the fat content makes much of a difference. Maybe a teaspoon for a steak.
