Fushi - Organic Grass Fed Ghee 480ml

Ghee is clarified butter that has been slowly cooked for hours to remove any impurities, water, lactose and milk solids. It has recently been deemed a nourishing powerhouse in Europe and North America as Ghee benefits from superb nutritional value but it has been known for these qualities in South Asia for centuries. Organic ghee has been an important staple in Indian cuisine for centuries and in Asian cultures it is renowned for its healing qualities. 

Ghee benefits from containing a combination of both saturated and unsaturated fats and includes short-chained fats making it easy to digest. It is incredibly rich in butyric acid, a short-chain fatty acid that is beneficial in helping to maintain the health of the cells that line the gastrointestinal tract. Ghee is also rich in antioxidants, contains conjugated linoleic acid and is also a great source of fat soluble vitamins A, D, E and K.

Additionally, organic butter ghee has an extremely high smoke point (251 °C/485 °F), making it an excellent choice for frying with as it doesn’t burn easily. 

Pure ghee is not only beneficial for the body but also for the mind. Ayurveda regards ghee or Indian organic ghee as key part of a balanced diet. It is considered one of the principle foods for protecting and nourishing the health of the skin, as well as maintaining good digestion and mental clarity.

Fushi ghee is made from small batches of traditionally churned quality English butter and “cooked” slowly for 6 – 8 hours to rid it of any impurities. This results in a pure ghee or clarified butter with a lovely fragrance and colour. For the best ghee, we ensure there is no added flavourings, preservative or colourings. 

The cows are fed grass between March and November, while in harsher weather between December to February the cows are fed organic feed, consisting of hay. The cows are never fed grains.

In harsher weather between December to February when Cows are not grass fed, the cows are fed organic feed, consisting of hay. The cows are never fed grains.

Artisan butter is made by hand in a traditional, non-mechanised way of using high-quality milk.

Our ghee is made from butter which has been produced by using pasteurized cream.

Ghee is not homogenized.

Ghee is primarily used as a cooking fat. It has an extremely high smoke point (251 °C/485 °F), making it an excellent choice for frying with as it doesn’t burn easily. Furthermore, ghee is incredibly versatile. It can be regularly used for the following:

• roasting spuds and other root vegetables like parsnips and beets
• whipping up the odd curry
• a butter substitute when baking cakes
• drizzling over popcorn
• mixing with garlic and parsley to make gluten free garlic bread
• sautéing vegetables
• making scrambled eggs
• spreading on toast 

Refrigeration of ghee is optional.

Ghee is composed almost entirely of fat, with water and milk solids removed, therefore it doesn’t require any refrigeration. It can be stored at room temperature in a cool, dark place away from direct heat and light. However, in warmer temperatures pure ghee can melt and become liquid, you can refrigerate it to keep it in a solid state.

Once opened it usually has a shelf life of around 12 months.

It is only some melted ghee separating on top from warm temperature. This does not affect the quality. You can either just stir it or place it in the fridge to solidify again.

It is perfectly normal for ghee to be liquid, solid or a combination of both. It depends on the storage temperature. Ghee is similar to coconut oil in the sense that it melts when it is above 20 degrees C. This is totally normal and does not compromise the quality of the ghee. Ghee will return to a semi-solid consistency when it returns to below 20 degrees C. 

It is completely natural for ghee to have a grainy texture. Ghee is melted over a low temperature before hand pouring it into jars, which then are placed in the fridge to solidify. This sudden change of temperatures creates a grainy texture.

Ghee is classed as a dairy product as it is made from milk. However most people who do not tolerate dairy, find that they can safely consume ghee.

Most of the lactose and casein is removed during the manufacturing process, however it is possible that tiny amounts may still remain. Therefore individuals who are incredibly sensitive may react when eating ghee and should probably avoid it. 

It is very individual. You can substitute ghee for most other fats you use in the kitchen. For individual fat intake requirements we suggest to consult a nutritionist or search online for ghee nutrition.

Our ghee is not cultured or fermented.

Ghee is great as hair treatment: massage into the scalp and throughout the length of hair, leave overnight and wash out in the morning using a natural shampoo. It can also be used for cuts, burns and dry skin.
