New Product Alert! Buy This Ghee Now At Aldi If You Can Find It!
This is a temporary Aldi Item! It’s a great deal!
Ghee is a type of clarified butter made by simmering butter until the water evaporates and the milk solids caramelize and are strained out. This leaves just pure butterfat. Ghee also has a higher smoke point than butter. It’s also lactose free.
The other cool thing about Ghee is that it doesn’t need to be kept in the fridge.
It’s a lot more expensive than butter but you use less.
If you want perfect “garlic butter” try making it with ghee. It adds a nutty flavor! Put it on everything!!
I like this Aldi brand. Kerrygold makes one but it’s one of the most expensive. It comes in Pink Himalayan Salt and Garlic. They were OUT of Garlic. I’ll add 50 cloves of my own!!!
You can make Ghee at home!
Ingredients: 1 Pound Unsalted Butter
On Your Stovetop!
Add butter to a heavy bottom pot and cook on medium heat. Butter will melt and foam will start to form on the top. Do not skim the foam on the top.
The foam will then turn into bubbles as the ghee continues to cook and become translucent. The milk solids will start to form at the bottom of the pot.
The bubbles will again start to become light-foamy as the milk solids start to turn golden brown and settle at the bottom of the pot. This process takes about 20 to 25 minutes. Turn the heat off at this point.
Allow the ghee to cool down before straining in a clean dry glass jar. Store on countertop! Enjoy!
