    Browned Butter {A how to}

    1. Put the butter in a sauce pan. 2. Heat the butter on medium high, and stir constantly. 3. When the butter turns to a light tan color, remove the pan from the heat. The butter will continue cook even when the pan is removed from the heat. 4. When the butter becomes a nutty brown color, pour the butter into a room temperature dish and is at the point ready for use. Photo Credit
