Azerbaijani Butter

Cultural Context

Azerbaijani butter, or clarified butter, has roots in the culinary traditions of the Caucasus region. It is cherished for its rich flavor and high smoke point, making it ideal for frying and sautéing. Traditionally, it is used in various dishes, from pilafs to pastries, and is a staple in many Azerbaijani households. Today, this method of butter preparation is popular worldwide, with many cultures adopting ghee as a versatile cooking fat.
