Nanak Pure Desi Ghee, Clarified Butter, 56-Ounce Jar

I am probably using this wrong. I use this a general purpose sub for butter when cooking mainly for the high smoke point. Such as frying/sauteing everything such as a few eggs or steak or veggies. I think this works great for what I do. I like the flavor. Yeah it is a little grainy, but it melts quick seems to have a fairly high smoke point. I haven't smoked it yet. For western style cooking it is a really good general purpose cooking fat. I mostly cook with a carbon steel and iron fry pans, carbon steel wok and SS sauce pans. As a single guy this jar lasts me an easy year. I do freeze the jar and keep a small mason jar of it out for use. Which I refill as needed.This is the only ghee I have ever used so don't know how it is supposed to taste, with that said, I like the taste it gives cooked food. This has a nice buttery taste and doesn't smoke when used with skillets. I still use olive oil and regular veggie oil depending on the flavor I am going for. This is a lot more expensive then regular butter (3x the price) but the high smoke point is worth it.

Having clarified my own butter only on rare occasions, I must say the convenience of having ghee nearby in my kitchen is a treat. And since this is my first experience with purchased ghee, I have no basis for comparison; however, the taste, the consistency and the aroma of this product places the bar very high for other ghee products to follow.Following the Paleo diet, I find myself using this ghee even more often than olive oil. The taste profile is rich and can only be described as downright decadent. And in all honesty, it's probably healthier than the olive oil we get here in the US.Although it doesn't explicitly state it on the container one way or the other, I'm pretty certain this ghee doesn't come from grass fed cows. For Paleo, that's a big downer since Paleo stresses go all natural as much as possible. But for me, it's pretty irrelevant since ghee from grass fed cows would be prohibitively expensive.To help offset the non-grass fed cow thing, the flavor of this product from this Canadian company is all pluses -- pretty much off the chart!I highly recommend Nanak's Pure Desi Ghee from a health standpoint, for its flavor and most importantly for its high smoke point ... if you do a lot of frying.Ghee is great for light sautéing, placing a dollop on steamed veggies or grilled meats and for baking. I even use this for popping corn (Shhhhh! Don't tell the Paleo Police!). It's awesome stuff I don't think my kitchen will ever be without now. For me, I'll be going back to this company when I use up this batch of ghee.

Good products

I ran out of my clarified butter and needed one pretty fast as I eat a lot of fish and it tastes the best when fried on that kind of butter. So first of it is a huge jar and for a moment I was worried I would have noroom in my fridge for that but because of its size it is a great value.(way better than ones bought in the store) . It came in a liquid form but that is to be expected as I live in Florida and it is hot outside. I was glad that the expiration date was in December so I have plenty of time to use it up ( we are a small family of three). Once hardened in a refrigerator the butter got this very waxy texture which makes it harder to even get it out of jar ( I was hoping it would be a bit more creamer ) but the smell is pleasant and it tastes good so overall I am very happy and I am glad I will not have to worry about running out any time soon.

Happy with this product BUT.... the third party private supplier NEEDS to package the item correctly, so the jar or lid does not bust apart inside the packaging box during delivery. Received in a box full of free-flowing ghee!

I have bought two of these containers of ghee in May of 2024 and have been using it since then but am still half way through my first. About three months later I noticed it tasted weird, but didn’t occur to me to that it could be going rancid as it always had a different taste than the one I bought previously from another seller. Then, a little later I go to use it again and it’s really bad. I finally think to check the expiration date and it expired a month after I had bought it. So now I have one and a half containers of rancid ghee. I contacted seller with absolutely no response. Crickets!!! This stuff is not cheap and I feel it’s VERY DISHONEST to sell something that is about to expire without divulging that information so the buyer can make an informed purchase. I did not pay almost $70 for an expired product. I WANT MY MONEY BACK!!!!

I have made another review about this product. IT is bought over and over. It is great for health needs right now in Keto Coffee. The taste is smooth, is not greasy, and no leakage. This can also be used for cooking and baking. It is a must have for your convenience. Thank you. SJ

My go-to ghee product.
