Clarified Butter

Pantry and Fridge

Ingredients

3 lbs butter

Instructions

Place butter in a heavy 2-quart saucepan over medium heat. Adjust heat as butter melts to bubbling. As butter cooks, skim the white foam with a spoon and discard. Over time the bubbles will get smaller and the butter will become clear. Once clear, remove from the heat.

Allow to cool 1 hour and pour through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth. Discard any water or solids left at the bottom.

Yield: 4 cups

RSJ’s Smoked Yellowfin Tuna Dip

The smoked tuna dip at Harbor docks is, by far, the best in the area. Actually, it’s the best I have ever tasted. Over the years I have taken a few stabs at recreating a Harbor Dock’s version, but always come up short. After several failed attempts, and facing a cookbook deadline, I finally worked up a recipe for smoked crab dip, which is excellent, though my wife still prefers Harbor Docks smoked tuna dip.
