Pure Cow Ghee (500g)

Description

The term “Pure Cow Ghee” signifies its authenticity and lack of adulteration. It is a product typically crafted using the traditional “Bilona” method, an ancient Indian process that is highly regarded for producing the most authentic and nutritious ghee. This method is a multi-step, labor-intensive process:

1. Milk Sourcing: The process begins with sourcing fresh milk from indigenous “Desi” cows, often A2 milk-producing breeds like Gir or Sahiwal. The quality of the ghee is directly tied to the quality of the milk, which is why grass-fed cows are preferred.
2. Curdling: The fresh milk is boiled and cooled, and a starter culture of curd is added to it. The milk is then left to ferment and transform into a full-bodied curd.
3. Churning (Bilona): The curd is hand-churned using a wooden churner (Bilona). This rhythmic churning separates the butter (makkhan) from the buttermilk. This method is crucial as it retains essential nutrients and beneficial fatty acids, unlike modern industrial methods that use milk cream.
4. Clarification: The collected butter is then slow-cooked over a low flame. As it heats, the water evaporates, and the milk solids separate and caramelize at the bottom of the vessel. The result is a clear, aromatic, golden liquid—pure ghee. This slow-heating process is what gives the ghee its characteristic nutty flavor and aroma.
