    Steve, I saw this in my last issue of Cook's Illustrated and was planning on trying it. Since going carnivore in February, I have been doing this with any steak I'm cooking. If doing it sous vide, I add the drippings to the pan after the steak has been seared. I allow the drippings to caramelize in the pan. Then I deglaze the pan with the 3 Tbsp. Water, scraping up the fond. Then I turn off the heat and add 1 stick of butter by Tbsp. whisking to emulsify. It is a wonderful sauce for the steak. I've used it for pork chops and even for ham. IT also ups my fat ratio in a way most pleasant.

    Great video! As well as providing more than one example (versions for scallops versus beef tenderloin), I really appreciate the technical details with respect to critical temperatures to keep the emulsion stable as well as forewarning of what to expect if refrigerating leftover sauces and how to utilize those to make flavoured clarified butters. I've been having problems making simple pan sauces sometimes, but now, understanding the critical 190 F threshold, I'm anxious to give those another try.

      @SeriousKeto  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      I've never made a clarified butter that turned out this well. I've found that the milk solids start to brown and it's a pain filtering. This method seems to coagulate the milk solids much better and at a lower temperature. Making and breaking this sauce will be my "go to" method for clarified butter from now on.
      And I used the clarified butter last night to sear and baste some NY strips. Sooooooo Gooood.

      @@ellieb2914 The flavor of the clarified butter is a lot more subtle, as I find a lot of the seasoning coagulates with the milk proteins when the sauce breaks. I use unsalted butter and didn't find the clarified butter to be noticeably salty.

    I'm so glad I watched this a few days ago!! I made some steaks this afternoon and thought... what if,,, can I make this from memory? So, I added some water and a little white wine to my pan drippings, simmered it for a bit and started adding cold butter. At 1st I thought it wasn't working but I kept on going, and it emulsified!! OMGoodness!! It was so good! I really wanted to lick the plate! Thank you, Steve!!

      Thanks, Julia. Let me ask your professional opinion on something. I haven't used music in a cooking video since my first year. I was thinking that this video could have used just enough background music to cover up the sound of my exhaust fan. Your thoughts? Music or just natural noises?
      PS - glad you liked the microwave Cheez-Its. I had some last night. 😉

    • @juliasweeney3479

      I love music and think it often helps. But what music? What can you play on TH-cam? You can't just pick a great song without permission, I'm assuming. Usually the music is awful imho. So, if you can get some good music, or get someone to record just what you want (and that can be time consuming and expensive) then it might not be worth it. I didn't notice the fan noise frankly and probably would have been noticing the music rather than what you were doing. So, hmmm... I guess this isn't that helpful. Ha. Anyway, I think your videos are great, your personality carries them, and your goodwill and enthusiasm are the dynamic element. I'm not sure the music would add unless you were doing a montage of scenes that would benefit from the music. I don't know! xoxo

    Thanks for another practical and accessible food enhancing technique, Steve. Seeing your jar of dried mushrooms caused me to wonder if you could do a video on choosing and using dried mushrooms? Our farm is 35 minutes from the closest grocery store (which is somewhat limited and costlier - love what they do in the community and that we even handle such a nice grocery store!) so I don't have fresh mushrooms always on hand - canned mushrooms just aren't like fresh (really need to learn to grow them, i guess!) but I have often wondered about dried. Do you use them much? If you are looking for potential future videos, there is my offering of a suggestion and I would look forward to it (or any helpful direction if you know of a reliable other video source if you are not interested in making a video on that topic. I trust your recommends and advice. Tia!) Thanks for posting!

      Thanks for the reply. A little story on making clarified butter... About 2 months ago, I found a sale on butter and bought several pounds. Because it was cooler weather, and the frig was full, I used a cooler outside on the front porch (high temps might be in the low 40's so perfect extra "frig" space and safe from barn cats!). I also had a family pack of frozen chicken quarters slowly thawing as well as some other items. I had the butter in a plastic shopping bag on the top and the chicken tray in a couple of plastic grocery bags on the bottom. I was checking regularly, as I wanted to use the chicken. When the chicken was mostly thawed, though still with some ice crystals, I removed it to use. Then I noticed some "juice" dripping when i lifted out the chicken tray and put it in the sink! I had to clean the drops of juice trail and then the cooler. The bag with the butter, which had been atop other items (like cottage cheese and greek yogurt cartons) had fallen into a small pool at the bottom (btw, it had not been there when I took out the chicken - it must have been deposited when I tilted the chicken package out). It could have only been in that state for a couple of minutes but I didnt want to take a risk with the butter in their cardboard outer, and waxed parchment inner wrappings (the tubs were sealed and outsides could be wiped off) but I didn't want to waste 4# of butter. What to do? I made ghee! It was easy and worked well. It was salted butter and the coagulated milk proteins and browned bits at the bottom were nutty, not burned. I poured off beautiful golden light brown ghee, which was just golden when cooled and smells caramelly, and kept the bottom scrapings into another, smaller container - very salty but tasty! I've kept the ghee on the counter and it has been great to cook with and fry in my cast iron. The browned bits I kept in the frig and they have been a satisfying topper on occasions, and even as a little gnosh when needing a bite of fat and salt - little goes a long way. It is worth a repeat, imo, and though I haven't tried browned butter bites, which seemed all the rage a few months back, given this experiment, I bet they are yummy. I don't know the difference between ghee and clarified butter unless it is that the ghee is brought to darker nuttiness?, but I learned butter burns at about 250 degrees and ghee around 450. Also, because all the water is removed, it lasts up to 6 months on the counter and a year in the frig. So, if I find another butter sale, I have a plan! Cheers!

    OMG, they looked amazing. I watched a video last night on using a butter garlic sauce on cooked cabbage, potatoes cheese and buckwheat pasta that I was going to make keto. I love your sauce technique more than the other video's. The mushroom flavor with cabbage and pasta and cheese would be delicious, so I think using it to coat keto pasta would be great. One question, do you think using ghee would work instead of a stick of butter? I don't do well with dairy but ghee is fine (and goat or sheep milk cheese.)

      Ghee is already clarified, so I doubt it would whisk into an emulsion.

    Greetings Steve. Great video! Always looking for some way to kick a dish up a notch. Speaking of which, have you heard anything from Dennis lately?

    Thank you for your recipes, they are very interesting.
    I have two questions:
    I live alone, how much butter should I use for single serving?
    Usually I keep ghee on countertop, if you adding additional ingredients, should it be kept in fridge?

    • @SeriousKeto

      It depends on if you want left over clarified butter when you're done. I feel like a single serving would probably be around 2 tsp of water and 2TB of butter, but I haven't tried. And if you filter your broken sauce for clarified butter, I'd see no reason why you couldn't leave it out on the counter.
