- draw_down 6y agoNot clarified butter; it's clarified so that it can be cooked at higher temps (it also keeps longer). Clarified butter has a higher smoke point than several plant oils.
- ominous_prime 6y agoThe solids in butter are what burn quickly. Clarified butter burns at 230°C, which is at the higher end of cooking oil smoke points.
