STEP 1

Slice a stick of butter and add pieces to a saucepan over medium heat

STEP 2

Butter will melt and start to crackle. Whisk consistently

STEP 3

Eventually butter will bubble up and start to turn darker - keep whisking

STEP 4

After a couple minutes it will start to foam and deepen in color

STEP 5

Continue to whisk and remove butter from the heat as soon as it gives off a nutty aroma

This should take about 4-8 minutes in total!

STEP 6

Transfer butter to a bowl to cool & scrape out all of the brown bits from the pan
