Drawn butter

Drawn butter

Drawn butter is an American term for a preparation of melted butter, generally clarified.[1][2][3][4] There does appear to be some confusion or disagreement[5] about whether it must be clarified to be considered "drawn", or merely melted with the surface foam skimmed away, or even simply melted. Most culinary experts seem to consider it to be clarified butter.

Drawn butter is typically served with steamed seafood.
