Instructions
BUTTER & BUTTERMILK PREPARATION:
In a large bowl take fresh cream, or heavy cream.
Using a hand blender beat or whip at low speed. You can use a stand mixer or food processor too.
Whipping cream thickens, and continue to beat until stiff peaks.
After about 5 mins of beating, whipped cream will be ready.
Add 1/4 cup ice-cold water and continue to beat at low speed for another 10 minutes.
whipped cream will start to breakdown.
Keep beating and until the cream turns yellowish.
After 15 minutes, the water content separates from the solids resulting in butter and buttermilk.
Scrape the edges and collect the butter together to one side.
Butter and buttermilk are ready. You can store the buttermilk in a glass container and use it in your other recipes within a week.
Collect the butter and form a ball squeezing off the water.
Wrap the butterball in clear wrap and shape it to a block.
Refrigerate the butter block for 3 hours. Butter stays fresh for about 2 weeks like this and use it as a spread or in your cooking.
GHEE PREPARATION:
Take butter and put in a large heavy bottom pot like a dutch oven.
Melt the butter completely on a medium heat.
Stir the butter until it changes color to a golden yellow or golden brown color and turns frothy on the top layer.
The butter turns aromatic and the bubbles turn transparent. Ghee is ready.
Cooldown the ghee slightly and filter out to remove any residue while filling the container.
Ghee is ready to use and can be stored for about a month on the counter top and up to 6 months in refrigerator.
Notes
Use good quality cream for better results.
Butter, buttermilk, and ghee stay good for a longer time when stored correctly in an airtight container in the refrigerator
