    still engaged in 'undergraduate study' here with simple fried potatoes and humble grilled cheese sandwiches, but... (?)

    Did you make your own or buy the jarred stuff?

    whole foods... jarred and organic, to boot.

    it's pretty easy to make. I'd throw a couple of pounds of organic unsalted butter into large pyrex measuring cup. Place in a 350 degree oven, wait about an hour.

    Let it cool a bit. Skim the cheese from the top with a spoon. Carefully pour the ghee into a clean jar. stop pouring when you see the whey at the bottom.

    The ghee is shelf stable, but refrigerating it won't hurt. The cheese isn't bad as a spread for toast or over some noodles.

    They also have jars at Marketplace on Oakton, but I always seem to pass it by...I'll have to pick one up. Not sure if it's organic or not; IIRC the label was in Hindi.

    since it ain't exactly a hindi thang (clarified butter)...

    i'm surprised 'paula' hasn't caught on.

    the distilled essence of unspoiled flavor...

    why, even... 'factory picked' cacklefruit, never tasted better.
