Organic Ghee, Clarified Butter, 13 ozUSDA Organic

This is an excellent organic ghee, and has a very fine, buttery flavor & aroma. It's a stronger taste of butter than plain sweet cream butter, which may be a new experience for some people but don't mistake this for gaminess like you'd expect from sheep or goat milk products tho, they're not at all similar.Ghee in general is somewhat expensive, considering 1lb of ghee is derived from over 4lbs of butter. And there is a somewhat limited selection of brands of organic ghee, so this makes the price higher.I read that many producers of ghee are actually committing fraud by only using FRACTIONS of the milkfat - not the whole milkfat! Or, they're substituting real milkfat with something else entirely, so ghee fraud is a big concern, just google it and you'll see, in India it's a major crime. I was stunned when I found this out.I think one of the signs of these fraudulent ghees is how they separate at room temperature. I've seen plenty of other brands sitting on shelves, separated and lumpy looking, with a fake bright yellow color. These are the cheaper brands.The Purity Farms brand does not have this problem. It stays solid at room temperature, even when my house has been above 80f inside (granted, inside the cabinets may be somewhat cooler.)Another reason I prefer organic ghee: Fat stores a lot of the chemicals fed to cows, so it's important to have a source of clean butter.Reading the Purity Farms website, they do mention to be careful to use clean utensils in your jar of ghee otherwise a "harmless mold" can contaminate the product.Also on their website, they state in their FAQ:"Sometimes, the Ghee is lighter in color than other times. Why is that?""We use no colorings in our Ghee, and the slight differences in color are due to seasonal changes. Ghee made in the summer tends to be more "yellow" because the cows are grazing longer hours and have more chlorophyll in their systems."Although they do not say specifically that their ghee is made only from grass-fed cow butter, the above answer implies that this ghee is in fact from grass-fed butter.I don't generally cook with ghee - it's too expensive and fine. I use it mainly for spreading on toast or other direct uses (such as a topper on cooked veggies or seafoods) so I can enjoy it in it's most natural state. (I use cheaper EV olive oil for cooking except on rare occasions when the flavor of ghee is essential to the recipe.)One 13oz large jar lasts me a good 2-3 months (using sparingly since the flavor is strong, it does not take a lot to enjoy.) Ghee will last indefinitely if kept from contamination by water or other food particles in the jar.In any case, this is an outstanding product, not as high priced as the "Grassfed" brand, and excellent in every way. It's worth the additional cost to get a high quality, pure product.

We use clarified butter (ghee) for sautée cooking (higher temperature smoke point) but it is not readily available locally. An Amazon order of ghee arrives within a week of ordering. High quality a d good value product.

No complaints. Tastes good.

I bought this because a French Chef taught me how to make real caramelized onions, I always thought that grilled onions were caramelized, WRONG! It is an actual recipe, so he said to use Ghee (clarified butter) due to its smoking point. So, I got this and followed his recipe which involves cooking the onions down until they are literally golden brown and the water is mostly evaporated, then it calls for more ingredients too. Now I can follow other recipes that call for clarified butter, so I went with the subscribe and save for this great product since I use it so much now, and this particular brand I found through research is the best.

Just when I opened the jar, the ghee had a rancid flavor and it smells very bad when heated. But, when I left it in the fridge for a couple of hours, the smell changed for a buttery like aroma. May be, this ghee needs ti be opened and left a couple of hours on the fridge before being consumed. This is the reason why I am glad to change my review for a more positive one, specially because I like this brand very much.

This is the second brand of ghee that I have tried and I like this one far and away above the other one (Nanak Pure Desi Ghee). This one doesn't separate and has a smooth creamy consistency, whileas the other one is more gritty and the flavor is not nice just straight out of the jar. Purity Farm has me eating it straight out of the jar and it smells just heavenly.I am very pleased with this product and would definitely buy it again. I especially like that it is casein-free as I have a dairy intolerance so even the small amounts of milk protein in regular butter might be an issue, but with this ghee I don't have to worry about it.*update* It is now a few months since I started ordering this and I have started ordering two jars at a time to make sure that I'm never without. I have confirmed that regular butter DOES cause me issues but ghee is perfectly fine due to being casein-free. I read that ghee is also an ayurvedic remedy for many things and is supposed to be healing for leaky-gut syndrome.I also have to say that it makes a FANTASTIC moisturizer for the face! I have ultra ultra sensitive skin that just cannot handle the slightest amount of chemicals on it. I thought to myself one day to try ghee as a facial moisturizer as I desperately needed it. I put it on, thinking that I might get red from it or break out as I have from every other moisturizer attempt and... no reaction! Best of all, my dry, scaly patch on my face is now soft and smooth after only two applications! I've had that scaly patch for months! I am so excited about this find since most of the time I cannot do any topicals at all, but my skin just loved the ghee and drank it up. A little goes a long way, so if you do this, a pea-sized amount is plenty for a large area. Rub in gently but if your skin is dry it will soak up quickly leaving you feeling soft but not oily if you put on just a little bit at a time. You can always put more as needed, so don't overdo at the beginning.
