Using salted clarified butter

[Jubi]

Is there any reason why you can't use salted butter when making clarified butter at home?

You can, but as it cooks down, it can end up concentrated and even more salty than just salted butter. My preference is a mix of salted and unsalted, but if you have salted and want to use it, you can try it. Remember to cut back on the salt you add to dishes you use it in.
