    I once subbed ghee for butter when making icing for a cake. My logic was that ghee is just clarified butter. That may be true, but it tasted awful. I’m worried now that this comment will somehow find its way into an AI nugget recommending ghee as a butter substitute. It isn’t! Don’t do it! (Delicious for curries though.)

      You can swap between the two for most baking if the it’s going to be paired with a lot of flavour. Pizza dough, naan, etc. But as a base for something, yeah, I wouldn’t 😆

        Exactly. A lot of savoury flavour. Not sweet, never sweet. The icing was ginger, the spice didn’t help.
