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.

5.0 out of 5 stars First-time ghee buyer: Here is my experience with this product

T. · March 13, 2013

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 Bolo. 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.

Well well well ... Surprise.... The ghee is the color it is in the picture -> true (ironic i know). (I was apprehensive after reading the raving nasty reviews)1. *yes its grainy or larger 'grained' than smaller containers of ghee.2. It really is that color3. The date is fine4. It tastes more buttery to me than 'ghee' flavored.5. Melts like butter on hot toast just as before.6. I think its better...(Yes i have had ghee before and i honestly think it tastes more and more weird the whiter it gets like its not butter at all and more like plastic)7. Yes its separated.... But ALL ghee does that? Regardless of color... Just leave it out to warm up.Technically i prefer Amish butter but it isnt always in the,stores, then Irish butter and then again its not always in the stores...Ghee is a great alternative.Its a good price.

4.0 out of 5 stars The jar is huge!

E. · April 30, 2021

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.

1.0 out of 5 stars DISHONEST!!! Expired and rancid

S. · December 30, 2024

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!!!!
