Brown Magic or Brown Butter

Instructions

1. Before you start to brown the butter, please be sure you have light colored pot.
2. IMPORTANT! Please use a lightly colored pot to brown butter.
3. Place 2/3 cup butter in light colored pot.
4. Start melting your butter over medium heat.
5. Begin stirring with a wooden spoon.
6. First, it will look like nothing is happening.
7. But be patient. The magic is about to happen.
8. Once butter is melted, it will begin to bubble and foam.
9. Keep stirring.
10. The color will change from sunshine, golden to a toasty brown.
11. So, what is happening?
12. The water evaporates and the milk solids say "bye, bye" to butterfat.
13. The milk solids are heavier than the fat and they sink down to the bottom of the pan.
14. Shortly, they will begin to brown.
15. As soon as I see those brown specks, I turn off the heat, take the pot off the stove.
16. But don't stop stirring.
17. Keep stirring for about 1 minute or until you achieve that gorgeous, amber-brown color.
18. Transfer into a heat proof bowl. .
19. Enjoy!
