    Here’s a little info about what clarified butter or ghee is and how to make it. Clarified butter has all the milk solids removed from the butterfat. The remaining butterfat is clarified butter and will remain golden yellow when melted with no separation. Typically, it is produced by melting butter and allowing the components to separate by density and spooning off the solids. Clarified butter can be used over high heat without burning as quickly as unclarified butter (You can see why chefs love it!) and will keep for 3 to 6 months in the refrigerator. On the Bone Broth Diet, it’s important to clarify your butter so that it will be nondairy.
