Pure Desi Ghee, Clarified Butter, 56-Ounce Jar

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.

I have neither MADE, nor PURCHASED ghee before, and this seemed like a good deal for a beginner. I live in Northern Arizona, product arrived on a warmish day for us in March and came mostly liquefied, with little white specks in. I thought, well butter does weird things according to temperature and put it in the cupboard for 2 days. I just went and looked at it again and now it has solidified, settled down to where it's going to live I guess, and I opened the seal to taste it. While it does seem the teensiest bit grainy, I was am so surprised at how NUTTY it tastes and am very excited to start using this, on toast, in cooking. I think perhaps some of the unfavorable reviews I've read (which didn't bother me - I bought it), are sort of climate related, and then of course there are finicky palates to take into consideration; as I said, this is my first taste of ghee! :) But having tried this, it wont be my last. I do intend to MAKE MY OWN one day, which I imagine is probably the best/least expensive way for anyone to go about having ghee (it's VERY simple), but my stove is currently under repair and I just couldn't wait to try ghee. The "ghee experts" may know different than I do, but I always have had beginner's luck and I think good intuition. This tastes delicious to me, and I do not plan to do anything more than sautee with it (not planning on using it to deep-fry)... Thank you seller, thank you Amazon. I am happy with this purchase, and I'd tell you if I were not. :) Update 03/20/2013: I have been using this exclusively since I purchased it, in place of any other cooking oil, food spread, et cetera, and I just love this stuff. I don't know why I haven't been using it all along. I truly think it's always better to use natural products.

This is the best Ghee butter I’ve ever tasted and have ever used. I’m desperately trying to order. I used my last a few days ago. It blends perfectly. I use it in my bulletproof coffee.

Ghee was excellent but expensive compared to other stores .

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.

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!!!!

My go-to ghee product.
