Collection: Ghee

Ghee is clarified butter. It has been used in India for thousands of years. Clarification is the process of removing milk solids and water content from butter by boiling it at high temperatures. This is the reason why ghee is a shelf stable product and does not require refrigeration. This also explains why people in India have been using this form of butter for centuries (with refrigeration being a relatively new technology). It is used extensively in Indian cooking as well as some Middle Eastern and African cooking.

Traditionally, ghee has been used to enhance flavor and soften the hot taste of Indian dishes. It is also a key ingredient of many Indian sweets and desserts. Ghee can be used in any type of cooking that uses butter or oil.
