How to Brown Butter
Brown butter... the baking delicacy that can take any flavor profile to a different universe.
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter (salted or unsalted)
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a light-colored saucepan or skillet over low heat until it's fully melted. This can take up to 5 minutes.
- As soon as the butter is fully melted, turn the heat to medium and cook, stirring constantly, 7 to 10 minutes or until you notice the butter turning a dark golden brown color along the bottom of the pan.
- Immediately pour the butter into a heat-proof bowl to stop the cooking, making sure you scrape all of the browned bits into the bowl - this is where all of the nutty flavors are coming from!
- From here, you can use the brown butter however you please. I recommend using it in cookies and even brownies, but do what you please!
