- Collecting Butter:Carefully scoop out the separated butter(Makkhan) and place it in a brass or stainless steel vessel.
- Heating: Heat the vessel on a wood-fired clay or gas stove, gently melting the Butter(Makkhan) until it bubbles and sizzles.
- Simmering: Maintain a low, consistent heat, allowing water content to evaporate and milk solids to settle at the bottom.
- Clarification: Continue cooking until the butter turns into a clear, golden liquid, ensuring milk solids turn brown but don’t burn (this may take hours).
- Aroma and Texture: Recognize readiness by the aromatic ghee filling the air and its smooth, clear texture.
- Straining: Carefully strain the ghee through a fine mesh or muslin cloth to remove any remaining milk solids or impurities.
- Cooling: Allow the strained ghee to cool slightly but not completely.
- Storage: While still liquid, pour the ghee into clean, dry clay pots or glass jars. Use containers that aren’t entirely sealed to enable moisture evaporation.
- Solidification: As it cools further, the ghee solidifies into its characteristic creamy, semi-solid state.
