Have you ever wondered “Gee, what is Ghee?” No? Maybe that’s because you’ve never heard of the word! Even if you’re already familiar with Ghee, there’s lots to learn this episode, as we find out what Ghee is all about, and how it can benefit athletes.
Daniel from Gold Nugget Ghee is here to tell us exactly what Ghee is, its benefits, and the process that Gold Nugget Ghee uses to create organic certified keto + paleo friendly Ghee.
Ghee is a clarified butter, made by slowly simmering grass-fed cow butter to separate the milk solids and evaporate any water. This process results in a deliciously fluffy, smooth, lactose-free oil that tastes like caramel and has a high smoke point of 482F.
Ghee is said to increase its nutrition profile and flavor with age, much like wine. Ghee has rich caramel notes, nutty taste, and an absolutely amazing flavor! It is a great source of healthy fat and Vitamins A, D, E and K. It’s also great for people who are sensitive to dairy, as there is no casein or lactose! Pasture-raised ghee is especially high in Omega 3.
