Living Traditions Homestead is all about living a simple and sustainable way of life. We believe the world has gotten too “busy” and that people are missing out on many of the true blessings this world has to offer. We started as a small urban homestead in Gilbert, AZ and after the city grew up around us, decided it was time leave corporate America and take a big leap of faith by moving our family to the Missouri Ozarks.
We put out 2 new videos every week! Wednesday and Saturday. We hope you will become part of our homestead family by subscribing to our channel and watching as we give up the rat race and live simpler, more fulfilling life in the country.

Love your videos! Just a small suggestion, Ghee; as we Indians call it, or clarified butter, does last a long time, yes, but practically, as someone who has had homemade ghee all my life, I can tell you, that ghee does have a shelf life, after about 18 odd months, though it might not go bad, but the staleness can definitely be tasted. Ghee is at its best if used within 12-15 months.

[@redmapleleaf4617]

You are right about that. My Indian friend taught me how to make ghee years ago. She also taught me how to make dahl and roti and OMG! Love it! She also has made ladoo for me and hers are the best but she won't give me the recipe as it's a family "secret". lol It's okay though as making ladoo seems more like an art.

[@shripatibhosale6912]

Please note in ancient India🇮🇳 the aged ghee which is rotted or decomposed due to purposeful aging was used as the lotion on the battle wounds to avoid the septic in them. This use to save hand, feet, etc from surgical removal saving organs of solders. Yet it was so painful on application that solders were preferring death than this treatment.

[@camwhitman5425]

Ah...but what if you mixed ghee with honey to use as a spread?

[@austenhead5303]

When she said it would be shelf stable for "months", I assumed like... four. Or six. So a whole year is puhleeeenty.

[@mohitmorris]

@@austenhead5303 my comment on "shelf life" was aimed at clearing the contradiction in the video. When the video begins, the idea is being floated that ghee has an indefinite shelf life. By the time the video ends, she's talking about how it will last for months. So for many, the question would be, how long will it really last? And as a life long user of homemade ghee, I thought I'd clear the confusion.

Interesting video... Reminded me of my childhood in India. We bought the whole raw milk from vendor. Pasteurized milk became available later. We used to boil the milk and let it cool down. The milk fat separates and floats on the top as a layer. This along with part of the milk was turned into Dahi/Curd using previous days dahi as the culture. The fat usually remains on the top, but can be mixed. Dahi is used as is or can be churned into butter milk. The churning was done by hand tool. Butter easily separates out. It can be used as butter or converted into Ghee.

@@krankywitch What we do at home, is collect cream from milk (that's first been boiled, and subsequently chilled....please use only whole, pasteurized will work ok too..... but toned will give you poor results....as for skimmed, toss that pseudo-milk away!🙂) everyday in a gallon jar, and add a teaspoon of homemade yoghurt to it every now and then. We store the jar in the fridge until it gets filled (typically takes a coupla weeks or so) The addition of yoghurt helps in 'culturing' the cream and keep it from going stinky.....so once the jar is full, we empty it into the butter churn, with about half a cup or so, of hot water (the cream is cold right, so needs some warming) and then start churning. at the end, what you get, is cultured butter, and cultured buttermilk :-) tips : The more 'liquid' (as in, milky, and not coagulated) your cream is when you collect it from the milk, the more buttermilk you'll end up getting. So if you really like a lotta buttermilk, then you know what to do🙂

[@ws4860]

@@rubanbose As I know, making ghee is a long process, slowly cooking the butter over low natural heat for hours. Here the butter is almost burned, that's definitely too much heat. Preserving butter needs time. I know spare time is rare on a farm, but sorry, if you want to keep all the treasures in the butter, you have to reduce the heat. This is not ghee, but it's not just clarified butter either. Clarified butter needs to be taken off the fire before the color (and taste) changes. Clarified butter is also more difficult to preserve, as the short cooking time means that there is often still some moisture residue (not separated from the oily part). It is to keep in the fridge and for long time preservation (max. two years) you have to freeze it. This white and possibly later brown fried stuff on the bottom is milk sugar (lactose) and milk protein (80% casein and 20% whey protein). First it floats to the top as a froth and you can remove it with a spoon or a very fine-mesh metal sieve, later it sinks to the bottom of the pot and just turns brown if you don't stir and skim it off. Here in Germany we call this type of toasted butter "nut butter" and it's also delicious and has a very good shelf life like ghee. But you can't compare the taste really to ghee from India, which is made from buffalo milk and flavored in various ways. Btw.: We use the cold light lactose foam as flakes on a special Swabian salt cake, according to a very old recipe. Or we eat it as a spread, very milky-sweet and also nutty, if you leave it on the heat for a longer period of time... so, so and so... wonderful.

If you use clarified butter (ghee) in place of butter, just remember that because a lot of water has been removed, the same volume will have much more fat. So you can use less, and it won't burn as easily since the milk proteins have been removed. It has a much richer flavour than butter, so start with half the amount of you are putting it on toast.

I still remember our cow Lou and the yummy cream and butter we got from her! She was a great cow for us and the memories are still strong at 73 years old! Great vid guys. How it’s done has sure changed tho.

[@roostershooter76]

We use ghee more than frying oils around my house. I always use it for my homemade hash browns a couple times a week. A pint doesnt last long in our house. It’s also awesome for frying or scrambling eggs and pan frying fish.

[@julieelliott7450]

❤️❤️❤️ your start to finish. I make my ghee in an instant pot, soup setting, 12 mins open valve. 😉😍❣️

[@juniorraut]

Scrape all the milk solids after you get ghee and then add sugar crystals and try the taste. It tastes amazing. Small portions used as home made sweets back in 🇮🇳

[@ceeyesj7888]

Scrape not scrap

[@shazelroz]

Sarah that was so educational. I have had to sit by a wood stove an churned butter everyday. We would sell the butter when we had enough. We did not know about gee. We have come a long way in my 68 years. That was so much fun to watch since I remember all the thing you did the long way. What you did in an hour it took us 3 or 4 hours. Great show

[@angelialou]

Great video! I make ghee pretty regularly from store bought butter and love it and use it often! I also keep the milk solids and use it on toast or in scrambled eggs. I can only imagine how delicious it is from freshly collected cream.

[@connieadamsmattson5767]

So sweet to see you with your cow. My great grandmother was about 6 feet tall and had a jersey cow who would follow her about like a pup. My mother used to relate that story, I never actually saw this. You made me think of her. Thank you.

Ghee makes fantastic popcorn. It also works well for stir-frying veggies. But my favorite use is for sauteing fish or chicken. It also works super well for searing your sous vide-cooked steaks because of its high smoke point. If you don't want to brown your milk solids, use a thermometer to catch it at the right point. When the temperature rises above 212°F, you should watch it very carefully. That is when the milk solids begin to brown.

[@suzannes5888]

How awesome to have so much fresh milk and cream! I've also started making cheese since COVID began. The soft cheeses are super easy to make...the hard cheeses have varying ripening times - so that always leaves a good rotation of options available for eating - or gifting. I realized that is there was a food scarcity issue we would definitely want cheese in our arsenal, so glad to have learned how to make it! ...One of the best channels I've found to learn is Gavin Webber.

I add thick slices of onions, garlic and ginger in ghee. Add all in the beginning and let boil to the end. Taste is amazing.

I love fresh butter. I only make small batches once in a while so I just put my cream in a mason jar and shake it. We love it.

[@janw491]

An electric mixer, hand or stand will do the job!

[@bonniebell1104]

@@janw491 oh I know. But when I just want a 1/4 pound of butter it doesn't make sense for me to pull out my stand mixer or food processor. Besides, I seem to like looking into ways of doing things during a time before stand mixers even existed.

[@thomasreiling4797]

We used to just hand it to one of our children(in a Mason jar) & they shook it until it was butter. Then I took over from there. Kid power!!! Its a wonderful "invention".

I spent many hours as a child shaking a peanut butter jar full of milk to make butter. Then washing the buttermilk out in a wooden bowl with a wooden paddle/spoon. It always seemed like magic to see the bowl of butter that came from the jar of milk.

Traditionally the reason Clarified Butter is gently whisked while heating is because it releases more of the solids that need to be taken out for a more pure product in the end. Another easy way to make clarified butter is by melting then pouring into a bowl of water. Put in the fridge and the milk solids will settle to the bottom of the water. The clarified butter will become solid as it cools and will float to the top, then easily separate when in the solid state from the watery, milk fat, bottom layer. The product is a little clearer this way and bypasses the filtration step.

[@1Waarheid]

I don't understand why so many call this ghee. In my country the Netherlands, clarified butter is called geklaarde boter. Maybe the last generations of people forgot about the clarified butter our ancestors used to make.

[@karlhumes6110]

If you call it Ghee rather than clarified butter you can raise the price. Sounds a lot more exotic.

[@dalepres1]

If I want to store it long-term, on the counter or in the freezer, I always put it into a container melted and put that in the fridge. Then, after it cools, you can cut/wash off all of the milk solids. The amount of time and effort put into making it as pure fat as you can get it should be directly proportional to how long you want to store it. Always clean it a reasonable amount but if you're going to use it in a month or two, that basic cleaning should be fine.

Growing up in Mississippi we had jersey cows and my grandmother had a crock churn that she made wonderful butter. I don’t have access to raw cows milk now but I make ghee from store bought butter. One pound of butter will make 1 pint or 2 cups of ghee . But don’t get salted butter if you want to use the milk solids on the bottom of the pan or it will be too salty.

[@lorinew-s2841]

I was hoping someone would answer the question of - how much butter produces how much ghee! thankyou!

[@GetBentGrocery]

Mississippi girl here! I would LOVE to get my hands on some raw cow milk to make ghee. The cheapest unsalted butter I've found is at Sam's Club. Guess I know what I'm stocking up on my next trip :) Thank you so much for letting us know how much ghee a pound of butter makes.

We just saw your butter making video, and it brought back a lot of memories when I was young. Just want you to know you can preserve butter by putting it in brine water with a plate and weight on top, and it will keep for a long time, I have seen my Grandmother do this lots of times. We enjoy your channel so much. Stella Nieder.

We make our own butter from our cows cream too. I have always used one of the bigger Kitchenade. The only catch is being close by when it breaks. I also make ghee. It is wonderful for cooking. If you let it cook longer and get a little toasty....it makes the best popcorn. I never buy vegetable oils

[@campcreekhill8933]

So you rely on a machine?

[@sharoncriswell201]

I use my KitchenAid. I'm not completely nuts. Lol. If it came down to it I do have one of the old fashion hand churns I could use, but for now I'll stick to the KitchenAid.

TIP FOR FELLOW SUBURBANITES: I live in a household of two in suburbia. I normally buy twice a year at wholesale (or locally if the sale price is reasonable ... say $2 - 2.50/lb USD) about 15 lbs at a time, freeze 12 of it, and use the remainder to refill my butter bell and a pair of pint jars of ghee. Doing that enables me to ride out the price swings between major holidays. Butter freezes beautifully, and lasts in ghee form for many months, esp if cold. I really wish I lived closer to a farm ... I adore cooking and would love to volunteer time and perhaps barter for/with stuff, for fun learning and enjoyment.
