What is cultured ghee?
Cultured ghee is made by first allowing milk or cream to naturally culture into curd or dahi. The curd is then churned to separate the butter, which is slowly cooked until the water evaporates and the milk solids are removed. This traditional process gives cultured ghee its rich aroma, flavour, and slightly grainy texture.
What does “Bilona Ghee” mean?
Bilona refers to the traditional method of churning cultured curd or dahi to obtain butter before turning it into ghee. Unlike ghee made directly from cream, Bilona ghee follows the longer process of milk to curd, curd to butter, and butter to ghee.
How is cultured Bilona ghee different from regular ghee?
Many commercial ghees are made directly from cream or butter. Cultured Bilona ghee begins with cultured curd that is traditionally churned before the butter is slowly cooked. This gives it a deeper, more authentic aroma and flavour and retain the nutrients.
