The primary reason for clarifying butter is to increase its smoke point, meaning that it can be used at higher temperatures without burning. This is useful when the food you are cooking will benefit from the flavor of butter as opposed to plain cooking oil. It is worth noting that while clarified butter won't be quite as tasty as it was in its original state, it certainly packs more flavor than cooking oil. Good examples of foods that benefit from cooking in clarified butter are omelettes, fried potatoes and fish fillets. It is also preferred for making butter sauces like bearnaise and hollandaise, as well as for making roux. "Drawn butter" is simply melted butter and has not gone through the clarifying process.
When making clarified butter, always use unsalted butter because the salted variety can produce unpredictable results. Start with a half-pound, cut into tablespoon-sized chunks. Place them in a heavy saucepan and heat them over a low heat until melted. Continue the cooking until a foam rises to the top and you can see the milk solids begin to filter to the bottom. As the butter clarifies, skim the foam that rises to the top with a shallow spoon or ultra-fine strainer. Once you've removed the foam from the top, take the pan off the heat and let it stand for a few minutes to be sure the milk solids have settled completely at the bottom. At this point you can slowly pour your clarified butter into a container for storage. Discard the solids that remain at the bottom of the pan. The process of clarifying butter reduces the volume by about 25 percent, so your half-pound of butter will yield about 3/4 cup of clarified butter.
