Purchase Bulk Clarified Butter from Butterball Farms

What Is Clarified Butter?

Butter is gently cooked until the water evaporates and the milk solids separate out, leaving pure, golden butterfat. That simple change gives it three big advantages in a professional kitchen:

Higher smoke point

With the water removed, clarified butter withstands higher temperatures — ideal for searing, sautéing, and high-heat cooking without burning.

Longer shelf-life

Removing the milk solids and water gives clarified butter a noticeably longer shelf-life than regular butter.

Pure butterfat

Just butterfat — no added salt and no water — for clean, rich flavor in every application.

A higher smoke point for high-heat cooking — toasted bagels with melting clarified butter on a board beside blueberries

What Is Clarified Butter Used for?

Clarified butter can be used for a number of different purposes. These include but are not limited to:

Seafood dishes: Cook seafood the right way with a rich clarified butter that will provide a beautiful browned color to shrimp, scallops, and salmon alike. You can also use melted drawn butter for dipping crab legs!
Vegetables: Vegetables can be elevated in flavor and texture by being tossed into a stir fry with clarified butter.
Meat: Clarified butter can be used to accentuate the rich meaty flavor of a well-cooked steak or enhance the fatty texture of a porkchop.

The Benefits of Buying Clarified Butter Wholesale

When you consider all the uses of clarified butter, it makes sense to buy in bulk. Buying bulk clarified butter not only saves you money, but it also keeps you well-stocked for any cooking or baking needs for years to come.

Shelf stable

Clarified butter does not have to be refrigerated because it undergoes a process that removes all water and leaves behind a highly concentrated butterfat.

Simple & multi-use

Clarified butter can be used in many dishes just like standard butter, and pre-portioned products make it easier to handle. Sauté, pan-fry, finish pasta, or spread on bread — a versatile, savory product for any palate.

Healthy diet

Did you know clarified butter is practically a superfood? It contains fatty acids and CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) to aid gut health, and it’s a great source of vitamins A, D, and E.

Burn resistant

Cook, saute, or bake your favorite dish with clarified butter without fear of burning. Clarified butter has a higher smoke point than butter and won’t burn, making it great for high-heat sauteing.
