Clarified butter

edit

Some recipes specify clarified butter for beurre noir )see [1]). Does anyone know if that is the traditional recipe? --ChrisSteinbach

Clarified butter means you just boiled the water content out of raw butter, yielding a rendered fat. You could stop there, but you could also continue and toast the milk proteins that settle out once the water is boiled away, yielding beurre noisette when toasted brown to beurre noir when toasted black. 75.0.0.210 (talk) 07:41, 6 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
