About Ghee
Ghee is a type of clarified butter originating from Indian cuisine, where it has been used for centuries in cooking and traditional medicine. Made by simmering butter to remove water and milk solids, ghee is rich in fat and free of lactose and casein, making it suitable for some who are dairy intolerant. Nutritionally, it contains fat-soluble vitamins like A, E, and K, along with butyrate, a fatty acid believed to support gut health. Its high smoke point makes it ideal for frying and sautéing without breaking down into harmful compounds. While ghee is a healthy fat when consumed in moderation, it is calorie-dense and should be eaten sparingly, especially for individuals managing cholesterol or weight. Revered in Ayurveda for its nourishing qualities, ghee offers a flavorful alternative to standard cooking oils while carrying a rich cultural legacy from South Asia.
