What to know about clarified butter

Clarified butter is butter that has been gently melted and skimmed so the milk solids and water are removed, leaving almost pure golden milk fat. That is why it reads clean on lactose: the milk sugar leaves with the solids, so lactose-intolerant cooks usually tolerate it. Our data still flags it high for dairy protein, because a trace of casein and whey can survive the skimming, and a true milk-protein allergy can react to even that little. Prized in French kitchens for its high smoke point, it behaves like a fat rather than a dairy drink, but it is not a fully dairy-free food.

Watch for

  • Flagged high for dairy protein: skimming removes most of the casein and whey, but the traces left behind can still trigger a genuine cow milk allergy
  • Near lactose-free, since the milk sugar leaves with the discarded milk solids, so it usually sits well with lactose intolerance
  • A mild histamine liberator and a saturated animal fat, worth noting if dairy fat tends to aggravate you
