Organic Cultured Ghee

Organic Cultured Ghee is a clarified butter made from certified organic, grass-fed butter that is gently fermented before slow cooking, giving it a deeper, tangier character than traditional ghee.

At a glance

• Type: Cultured ghee (clarified butter)
• Made from: Certified organic grass-fed butter cultured with organic buttermilk for 2 to 3 days
• Process: Slowly cooked to remove moisture, then clarified and strained, lightly toasting the milk solids
• Certifications: Certified Organic by the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship, and Certified Kosher by the Chicago Rabbinical Council
• Good to know: Naturally occurring lactose is largely converted during culturing, and the butterfat is shelf-stable

Best for

Cooking, baking, and finishing dishes where a richer, slightly tangy ghee adds depth. A good fit for high-heat cooking thanks to its clarified butterfat.

In the kitchen

Use in place of butter or oil to saute, roast, and bake, or add a spoonful to finish vegetables, grains, and dal. The cultured notes come through most when the ghee is used to finish a dish.

Flavor profile

Rich and aromatic with a subtle tang and a lightly toasted, nutty depth that sets it apart from standard ghee.

Pairings

Roasted vegetables, rice and grains, eggs, dal and curries, and warm baked goods.
