I am looking for the indian homemade butter that is called GHee...what store can you get that from?

Answer:
I think it would be easier to make Ghee at home.

Ghee is essentially clarified butter (clarified butter is butter that's been melted so that the milk solid separate from the butter fat) that's been cooked a little longer to boil out moisture (butter has 15% to 20% moisture content while Ghee is close to 100% butter fat).

1 lb unsalted butter

Start with medium heat in a heavy bottomed sauce pan and let the butter melt.

When the butter starts frothing, turn down the heat a little and let it continue "cooking".

Keep an eye on the butter and the butter will start to turn a darker golden color and the curds on the bottom of the pan will start to brown.

When the butter has stopped sputtering you're done... about 15 minutes.

Just let it cool off and strain into a jar or just a baster and siphon out the liquid "gold" leaving behind the little bits of stuff.
If youre in the south. Try Piggly Wiggly there. I think they have every bizarre edible item there. Or the internet is a great place.

Any local Indian Grocery Store will carry it, the best one in toronto is called Indian Groceries & Spices 416-752-7157 is the phone #
Almost any Indian (or subcontinent) grocery store will have it. But I prefer to make my own.

PS- I save the toasted curds to put on popcorn.


1 pound unsalted butter

Put the butter in a heavy, medium-sized pan. Turn the heat on to medium until the butter melts.
Turn down the heat until the butter just boils and continue to cook at this heat. Do not cover the pot. The butter will foam and sputter while it cooks. Whitish curds will begin to form on the bottom of the pot. The butter will begin to smell like popcorn after a while and turn a lovely golden color. Keep a close watch on the ghee, as it can easily burn. After a while it will become a clear, golden color. You will have to take a clean, dry spoon to move away some of the foam on top in order to see if the ghee is clear all the way through to the bottom. When it is clear and has stopped sputtering and making noise, then it needs to be taken off the heat. Let it cool until just warm. Pour it through a fine sieve or layers of cheesecloth into a clean, dry glass container with a tight lid. Discard the curds at the bottom of the saucepan. The ghee is burned if it has a nutty smell and is slightly brown.
(1 pound of butter takes about 15 minutes of cooking time. The more butter you are using, the more time it will take.)
Ghee can be kept on the kitchen shelf, covered. It does not need refrigeration. The medicinal properties are said to improve with age. Don’t ladle out the ghee with a wet spoon or allow any water to get into the container, as this will create conditions for bacteria to grow and spoil the ghee.
Two pounds of butter will fill a quart jar with ghee.
You can get it from any Middle Eastern store or Indian store, or you can make it at home by melting butter and skiming the scum off the top. It's the same thing.

How To Prepare Ghee

Ghee is a healthy alternative to butter and oils. It is available at natural foods and Indian product stores or you can prepare the ghee yourself:

Makes 1 ? cups
45 min, 5 min prep
1 lb unsalted butter
cheesecloth

Heat unsalted butter in a stainless steel, thick-bottomed sauce pan, over a low-medium flame.
Allow the oil (ghee) to separate from the milk solids.
Periodically remove the foam that accumulates at the top.
When the oil is clear in color, the ghee is done.
Remove from the stove and allow to cool for a while, than carefully pour off the ghee into a wide-mouthed jar through several layers of cheese cloth secured to the opening of the jar or through a fine mesh strainer.
Cover the jar and store at room temperature.
