Best Cheese Assortments & Samplers
The difference between Ghee and clarified butter lies in their flavor and shelf stability: Ghee is superior on both counts Ayurveda recognizes ghee as an essential part of a balanced diet and is considered to be the very best oil one can eat. Comprised of full spectrum short-, medium-, and long-chain fatty acids, Ghee contains Omega 3 and Omega 9 essential fatty acids along with vitamins A, D, E and K. Our Ghee is one of the highest natural sources of CLA (Conjugated Linoleic Acid) because we use only the highest quality organic butter of pastured cows. CONTAINS TRACES OF OMEGA 3, 6, 9, VITAMINS A, D, E & K. MADE WITH BUTTER FROM GRASS-FED AND PASTURED COWS.
Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"I have cooked with both of them and although I couldn't detect much of a difference after I cooked with them, I would be able to tell the difference if I just put them on toast. I used to cook with grass fed butter until I learned that different cooking butters and oils will oxidize and create free radicals if they are heated above their allotted temperature. This makes it a much more stable fat to cook with and it can be heated to a much higher temperature than almost all other fats/oils without compromising it (485 degrees F)."
"I bought this a month ago based on an article in one of the "at the chekout stand" magazines. Women were losing an amazing amount of fat by adding 2 tablespoons of butter from grass fed cows to their morning coffee (using a blender). I expected to feel better by adding this butter, but didn't realize i would experience this wonderful side benefit as the women in the article did."
"I also can't see myself sitting her licking it off a spoon. What I lack in enthusiasm for eating it by itself, I make up for by being totally enthusiastic for cooking and baking with this. I could make a grilled cheese and just by buttering the bread with this Ghee, it's out of this world delicious. Apparently you can make it by taking a block of unsalted butter, getting it to boil at a medium heat, and running it through a cheesecloth. But judging from all the comments here, it probably wouldn't be near as good as Ancient Organics."
"After reading the same information from different nutritionists that oils like soybean oil, sunflower oil, corn oil, cottonseed oil, sunflower oil etc. Vegetable oils mess up the fatty acid composition of the body's cells, vegetable oils contribute to inflammation . It is now believed that increased inflammation contributes to serious disease, vegetable oils are loaded with trans fat. Now for stir frying I use unrefined coconut oil or virgin olive oil since these oils are healthy and only need a low heat to cook with because these 2 oils would burn at a higher temperature ."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"If you are using a yogurt maker 5-6 hours of incubation should be adequate (for those starting from this culture) if you do not have a yogurt maker then cover it with blankets ( a few sets) or various cloths to keep the internal heat (traditional technique I had used for many years before buying a yogurt maker) This time the incubation time depends on the external temperature, how you cover it and the volume of your milk. But around the same time should be fine. Traditionally people in my home country use pre-made yogurt as a starter culture and they even borrow culture from neighbors when they need to change it. A store bought yogurt could be a replacement for using a starter culture sachet like this one but in the long run, this comes cheaper than buying yogurt from the grocery every once in a while and is more convenient since it can be stored for a long time at a cool-dry place with no need for refrigeration. For example, using yogurt maker, I incubate the yogurt made from a previous yogurt for 4 hours to get the desired thickness. I hope this tips help the other home yogurt makers save some money, remember: yogurt has been made for thousands of years and using starter culture is only a thing of the last few decades..."
"We started making our own yogurt because I have ulcerative colitis, and we follow the Specific Carbohydrate Diet. Many people take probiotics, but they don't realize that there's no healthier way to replenish the good bacteria in your intestines than yogurt. When we tell people that we make our own yogurt, they act like we're living in the cavemen days, but the truth is that it's a simple and easy process. I'm hoping that eventually my intestines will absorb enough probiotics to continuously recreate them, but in the meantime, I don't mind eating this yogurt every day."
"I don't know how many times I could make yogurt from a previous batch because I run out of energy to keep it going before the start stops working. I put a small amount of freshly made yogurt in a clean, small glass jar with a lid to keep it from contamination and save it in the frig until ready to make a new batch later."
"Have ordered this many times and always made delish yougurt."
"So easy to make your own yogurt with this starter."
"The yogurt texture is so smooth and it melt right in the mouth."
"I've used a Yogourmet Yogurt Maker for years with just a container of yogurt as a starter and have had great success."

"Ghee is very shelf stable at room temp but it's suggested to refrigerate after 2 mos. UPDATE: I still have not repurchased because of my experience having to waste product because I could never open the lid and the last time I banged the lid too hard with a hammer and ended up with glass everywhere and in the ghee which I had to discarddd. Plant based oils high in Omega 3 fats are the healthiest oils including avocado oil which like ghee has a high smoke point."
"This is the best Organic Ghee out there I have found."

Personally I don't notice any type of chemical taste at all, although I am fairly used to zero-calorie water enhancers, so I may just be used to artificial tastes. But the stuff is zero calories, zero carbs, etc., and it's extremely sweet, so I can understand why people who may not be used to artificial sweeteners may notice that."
