Clarified butter substitute

If a recipe calls for clarified butter or you are frying in butter and want to keep the butter from burning, simply add a dash of olive oil to regular butter. It’s hard to distinguish the taste difference and since the olive oil has a higher smoke point, your food is less likely to burn in the pan.
