Plain butter is certainly to be preferred to polyunsaturated oils, but it still
contains milk solids ( cholesterol, etc) which are so very easy to eliminate.
It takes a whole 15 minutes to turn 1/2 lb of butter into ghee - which you can
then bottle and keep in your cupboard for months without it going rancid. LOL
IF you can hang on to it that long. I normally make Ghee about once a month,
and I use it on everything from steamed veges, potatoes and my toast.
You can also buy your ghee ready made if you don't mind the expense.
I sometimes pour a little olive oil on my avacado instead of mayo. Nice way to
get the benefits of both in a tasty combo.
