Homemade Ghee from Cream/Homemade Ghee from Scratch


For the 3rd day of blogging marathon#37,I am sharing how to get the butter from the fresh cream and melting the butter to ghee.I always use the homemade ghee only as we like the flavor and freshness of it.I used to get the butter from store and melted it till 2 years back.But one day when I had lot of leftover heavy whipping cream I decided to make the butter.The ghee got from the fresh butter was so flavorful,since then I started using the fresh cream to get the ghee.Lets move on to the recipe.............................




Basic Information

Preparation Time 20-25 minutes
Cooking Time 20 minutes
Makes around 150 ml of ghee



Ingredient

All you need is Heavy Whipping Cream (I used 500 ml)

 Other Things

A big Bowl
Electric Hand Blender
A Pan to melt the Butter
Strainer
Glass jar or container to store



Method

Keep the electric blender whisk in the freezer for 10-15 minutes.Now pour in the heavy whipping cream in the bowl and start beating in a medium speed.After couple of minutes it looks creamy,continue beating again another couple of minutes it reaches a stiff peak consistency.


Continue beating the process for next 10 minutes,the creamy mixture looks like curdled.In another 2-3 minutes you will see some buttermilk.


Now slowly reduce the speed to low and beat it for a minute,the butter will be separated from the buttermilk and float.Now with the hand take out the butter and put in a bowl of water.


Heat a pan in a medium flame add the butter to it,the butter starts melting.After the butter melts completely foam starts up coming.


After 3-4 minutes the foam clears up and it will be in pale yellow color.Now reduce the heat to low and continue after 4-5 minutes the pale yellow color changes to a light brown color and the milk solids settled in the bottom.At this stage turn off the fire and keep it aside for 5 minutes.Now strain the ghee.


Store it in a glass jar.


.Enjoy................................................................



  • With the residue my mom adds sugar and mix which can be eaten with idly.
  • Usually we add a sprig of curry leaves or drumstick leaves before switch off the flame.
  • Use a clean dry spoon to take out the ghee and no need of refrigeration.
  • If you live in a warmer place,keep the cream bowl in a container filled with ice and beat it with the blender.

Sweet Adai /Inippu Adai

Today is the final day for the Cooking Carnival in mega Blogging Marathon edition ans I like to end the series with a sweet note. Coming to the recipe its a sweet adai which is often made in our households for quick neivedhyam for offering to god..So many variations can be made using wheat flour,maida,ragi flour and sometimes with semolina. Today's version I used both wheat and all purpose flour along with rice flour.Since sweetener is used to make the batter this adai needs to be cooked in a medium flame,otherwise the color will turn dark.Here I used jaggery,even palm sugar and brown sugar can also be used.                                                                                                                                                                                                                      Sweet Adai/Inippu Adai                                                                         Basic Information    Pre
