Grass-fed Organic Ghee

Ghee, also known as clarified butter, is used to promote a healthy appetite and to nourish the body. It contains a balance of easy to digest fatty acids essential for healthy skin, nerves and cells. Ideal for healthy cooking due to its high ‘smoke point’ which means it does not produce damaging free radicals.

ORGANIC INDIA Organic Ghee

Our Organic Ghee is made with 100% organic butter from cows on small family farms in India. Silky smooth and luscious, our Ghee is the real deal! The cows are fed primarily grass, supplemented with grains during the cold months.

Ghee is made by simmering butter over low heat and removing the milk solids as they form. The result is a delicious, creamy spread great for baking, sauteing and frying. Ghee is also a great topping for bread or popcorn. With a high smoke point of 485 F Ghee can completely replace butter in your kitchen.

Organic Ghee Benefits

You can use it as a cooking oil anywhere else you would use butter or oil – Ghee has a golden color, a nutty and savory flavor. Excellent source of essential fatty acids. Great for sauteing or frying. No milk proteins. 8 oz. jar contains 50 servings.
