It is just the oil or fat in butter, the milk solids have been separated out and there went the flavor.
To correct the answer above:
The butter oil that results when clarifying butter is full of flavour components!. The quality of the butter one begins with and the process used all add to the final resulting butter oil.The salts are skimmed off the top of melted butter ( in a heavy saucepan over low heat) and the proteins ( milk solids) sink to the bottom.If left undisturbed they help flavour the clarified butter ordinarily leaving it with a slightly nutty flavour and a clear golden colour. If you make this at home : once there are no more salts rising to the top (skim with a spoon) and the butter oil begins to turn from lemon yellow to a golden color, you can control the flavour's richness by watching carefully- do not disturb the butter by stirring at all - and once the solids begin to turn brown a clear liquid remains above the solids in the pot. That is the clarified butter or ghee or butter oil- they are all the same thing. At that point remove from heat and carefully pour off the butter oil into a clean glass container with a tight fitting lid.Butter oil needs no refrigeration but does solidify in cold temperatures.It quickly liquefies when near a heat source ( i.e. placed next to the stove while cooking.Even over a pilot light on a gas stove for a short time).One pound of butter yields about a third of a pound of ghee.In some seasons the butterfat content is higher in the butter and you will get a higher yield.Using unsalted butter helps eliminate the skimming task. The key is not disturbing the melting butter and making sure that there are no particles in the oil you pour into a storage container.If particles are present filter them by pouring the golden liquid through several thicknesses of cheesecloth ( cotton cheesecloth.Do Not use the polyester type for paint straining.)
If you ask, are Ghee and clarified butter the same, the answer will be no, because they are produced using slightly different methods. Clarified butter is made by melting unsalted butter, which causes the milk solids to separate from the liquid butterfat. The solids are then removed, leaving the liquid butterfat, which is the clarified butter. Ghee, on the other hand, is made by simmering butter until the milk solids are golden brown and then straining them out. This process gives the ghee a nutty, caramelized flavor, which is different from the taste of clarified butter. Ghee also has a higher smoke point than clarified butter, which means it can be used at higher temperatures for cooking without burning. In summary, ghee is made from clarified butter and further cooked till the golden brown and nutty flavor and it has a higher smoke point.

If you look at equal volumes, clarified butter may have more calories than regular butter or margarine. Regular butter and margarine have some water in them. That water has been removed from clarified butter.
One creative way to incorporate clarified butter into popcorn recipes is to drizzle it over freshly popped popcorn and sprinkle with a mix of herbs and spices like garlic powder, paprika, and Parmesan cheese. Another idea is to mix clarified butter with honey and a pinch of salt to create a sweet and savory glaze for popcorn. You can also infuse clarified butter with herbs like rosemary or thyme before tossing it with popcorn for a unique flavor twist.
Clarified oil, often referred to as clarified butter or ghee, is a cooking fat made by melting butter to separate the milk solids and water from the fat. The process involves simmering butter until the water evaporates and the milk solids settle at the bottom, resulting in a clear, golden liquid. Clarified oil has a higher smoke point than regular butter, making it suitable for high-heat cooking. Additionally, it has a rich flavor and is commonly used in various cuisines for sautéing, frying, and baking.
Yes, clarified butter will solidify when cooled due to its high concentration of saturated fats.
