Measuring ghee accurately

Ghee is butter that's been simmered until the water cooks off and the milk solids are strained out, leaving pure butterfat. Because that water is gone, ghee is a little more concentrated than regular butter, and it behaves differently in the kitchen: semi-solid and scoopable at room temperature, but it pours like oil when warm. Scoop it firm and level the spoon rather than guessing with melted ghee, and weigh it when accuracy matters, since its volume shifts with temperature. Ghee has a much higher smoke point than butter, which is why it's prized for frying and tempering spices, and with no milk solids it keeps for months without refrigeration.

Clarified butter, measured melted. Because a cup measures volume rather than weight, the most reliable way to get the same result every time is to weigh ghee on a kitchen scale and aim for the gram figure above. The conversions on this page are based on the US cup of about 236.6 ml.
