Would you eat CLEAR BUTTER????

Contributor: Bignuf Bignuf
Someone told me they went to a culinary fair and someone had figured out a way to "re-harden" "Clarified" butter...and the result was a SEE THOUGH jelly like, light yellow substance (like butter colored Jello), but that would melt and spread like butter!!! The "mouth feel" was still not right, but IF they manage to make it workable and tasty, it could change how some foods LOOK.

Would you eat a TRANSPARENT butter pat??? (Remember, years ago, despite tasting IDENTICAL to the original, CLEAR COKE was a DISMAL failure)!!!???

If something that I like is made in a different color it wouldn't matter to me. As long as it tastes the same!

As long as it tastes like butter, I'd try it.

After all, I did eat the crazy green and purple ketchups as a kid and thought they were great lol

I agree. If the taste is the same, I really don't care what the colour is.

Many recipies call for clarified butter. The advantage as I understand it is that by removing the milk solids the butter withstands much higher heat. In Indian cooking this is called ghee. When you order lobster it is frequently served with clarified butter. So yes I would use it, but like all fats, in small amounts.

I don't know. I probably would so long as it was "safe" for consumption and everything.

I think it may look a bit too much like jelly for me. I don't think I'd be able to look at it and eat it. I like the look of butter as it is. I'm not good with change. LOL

Do a google search on Margarine vs Butter. At one time margarine manufacturers were prohibited from coloring their product to look like butter.
From wiki "In several states, legislatures enacted laws to require margarine manufacturers to add pink colorings to make the product look unpalatable..."
How the times have changed.

I agree entirely. Clarified butter is better with Lobster or other types of dipping! It is safe and actually better than just melted butter for dipping! This is NOT a new thing!

Lol, clarified butter is ancient! It's very popular in Southeast Asia because it has a more "pure" taste and a higher smoke point. You can store it without refrigeration, which was pretty important way back then. Also it's a bit easier to make than many other oils that have a high smoke point. If you've ever eaten Indian you've most likely had it.

Usually I don't mind colors. I was an adult when the green ketchup came out and I ate it. But clear butter? No thanks.
