Definitely check out the Nourished Kitchen’s post which I linked to above. I think she mentions Vit A and D, but probably only if it’s grass-fed butter. Enjoy! Katie

Rebeca,
Yes on the food grade. Funny packaging, though, with a hippo in a bubble bath! Enjoy the ghee- Katie

I just finished my first batch of ghee, your tutorial was awesome!!! I can’t wait to try it Also thanks for the link to the bulk coconut oil place. I am assuming since it is Colombus Foods that produces it that it is food grade? Thanks again!

Thank you for the extra uses for ghee, and especially for what to do with these butter solids! Katie

I agree with Marly about the pictures. Those will be super helpful when I try my hand at ghee.

I wonder if ghee and butter oil are similiar. I’m trying to get my husband to eat more butter but he’s still not convinced it’s good for him. If I could give him ghee and fermented cod liver oil together, he may take it.

Very cool. I’m going to have to add this to my list to make from scratch.

cool, i was so inspired by your post i did it myself! in fact, i may give homemade ghee as one of our homemade gifts this upcoming holiday season! might i also add it is sooo much cheaper then buying organic ghee at my local WFs or co-op, where it runs 10$ a lb!!! i got organic valley butter which was on sale and with a coupon cost 3.49/lb, and 1 lb made about 3/4lb ghee. awesome! thats like half the price of storebought ghee.

This is very clear! (no pun intended)

I use clarified butter to make baklava. That way you don’t get burnt solids on top, but it browns evenly and beautifully.

Indians use it to cook their onions — since most of their dishes start with browning a whole mess of onions, and they will burn before they brown into that nice caramelized mass if you don’t use ghee…

Thanks for all the great pictures! I’m sending this to a friend whose child is lactose intolerant!

I use the milk solids to fortify veggies and throw into my bread dough.
