Melting butter

Anyone here want to chat about melting butter?

I gotta be honest - I use the microwave almost entirely when I need to melt butter, unless I'm doing it just to cook with it on the stove. But sometimes, baked goods or breads require melted butter, so that goes in the microwave.

But I hate when some of the water in the butter explodes, and sends half your butter all over the inside of the science oven. That stuff's hard to clean up.

But if I'm cooking with it, obviously it just goes straight in the pan or pot.

Now, there is one instance where I melt a butt load of butter all at once - when I'm making ghee. I'll put like 2 pounds in the dutch oven and melt that, but then I keep on cooking it until the milk solids separate and start to brown and all the water in the oil boils out. By the way, I wouldn't really recommend cultured butter for this, as you mostly lose all the complexities of the nice butter. I've had equally good experiences with $7/pound butter as the cheaper stuff.

When I melt butter in the microwave for baked goods, I set the time for as short as possible. When about half has melted I swish the melted butter on the solid butter until it melts all the way. Takes a little bit of time but keeps it from splattering in the microwave.

Yeah, that's what I do most of the time. Sometimes you get some tricky butter, though.

I typically do 15 seconds at a time until it's almost all melted, then leave it alone. The residual heat will finish the process.

Bully for Billy but the benchmark of the best burgers is if it's built with a beautiful ball of beef unbound by breadcrumbs and broiled with bubbling brie on a buttery brioche bun.
