Ingredients

  • Unsalted butter as needed

Instructions

  • Place the butter in a pan or pot of a size appropriate to the amount of butter you're browning.
  • Melt it over medium heat and keep cooking it, mixing constantly with a spatula. It will begin to sizzle.
  • Once the sizzling stops it means you're close, pay attention to the colour of the milk solids that tend to be at the bottom.
  • Once golden, remove the butter from the pan or pot immediately.
  • Use it melted, at room temperature or cold depending on what the recipe needs.
