Noisette
noisette: vanilla brown butter ghee
Noisette is Lee's clarified version of classic browned butter. Also known as "beurre noisette", brown butter is an essential ingredient in French cuisine. Our 'Noisette' is infused with a touch of vanilla for extra indulgence; we always use real vanilla bean, not extract, as all chefs know that true vanilla flavour can only be derived from the pod itself. Be a bit gourmand and treat yourself to some Noisette ghee spread liberally on a slice of crusty sourdough bread. Ooh la la!
