Every India/Pakistani market has jars and jars of ghee, cooked clarified 
butter on the shelves at room temperature.  I keep it in my kitchen 
without refrigeration, and the only danger seems to be that it goes 
stale eventually. 

Don't bother salting clarified butter, it will just get filtered out.  
I'm big on salting food to taste at the table anyway.
