Topic: Freezing ghee

[fried]

A while back I bought a can of ghee which I think I'm going to risk opening tomorrow for 976bar's passanda recipe. Firstly I should stop buying tons of stuff I never use from Asian shops, but since I'm stuck with some ghee that doesn't seem to figure too highly in the recipes I'm cooking at the moment, I'd like to not throw it away after a few weeks in the fridge.

So, any ideas if it would freeze O.K? I can't see why not.....

Hi Fried,

I think butter ghee can last about a year in a cool dark place. I keep mine in the fridge.
Have a taste before you cook with it in case it has gone rancid.

I would imagine you can freeze it to make it last longer.

Cheers,

Paul

I reckon I could use it all up in a year! Thanks.
