This is just for those who are newbies at making ghee and wonder at what point the boiling of the ghee should be stopped and the pot lifted off the stove.

This is how I get my hint: when the ghee becomes so translucent that the bottom of the pan can be clearly seen through it (just like you can see the bottom of a swimming pool with clear water). At this point, the creamy foam floating on the top also gets a very subtle tinge of brown.

The process of making ghee is to purify the makhan. The ghee is actually supposed to be pure, without any water in it. If you are using it for puja or something like that, adding that water will nulify the process. Does the water you add evaporate as it sits, or does it remain in the ghee?

I usually keep the vessel inside a bowl of cold water so that the heat from the vessel doest overcook the ghee.. Also u can add a pinch of salt to it . We can avoid the ghee sticking to the bottom of the pan.
