Browned butter lends a nutty flavor in preparations. It is made by melting butter so the milk solids begin to brown. As the butter is heated, it turns brown in color, providing a nutty flavor . If allowed to brown too long, it becomes dark in color and burnt in flavor. Brown Butter is also used as a sauce to add flavor to eggs, vegetables, fruits, meats, poultry and fish. Flavors like lemon juice, pepper, herbs such as parsley or cilantro.
