Golden Healer Ghee

Description:

Our grass-fed ghee blended with all organic turmeric root, ceylon cinnamon, ginger root, cardamom, black peppercorns and a pinch of celtic sea salt.

Inspired by the traditional Ayurvedic “golden paste” used to promote healing, our Golden Healer Ghee features the classic herbs and spices in a flavorful blend. A spoonful or two of this ghee makes the perfect base for Golden Milk, a soothing Ayurvedic drink made by warming the ghee and spices in a pan, adding any choice of milk and a sweetener of your choice (honey, maple syrup or dates are great options!)

Aside from traditional golden milk recipes, this potent blend is also a great cooking oil for curry, fried eggs, roasted cauliflower, and squash/pumpkin soups. Try sautéing vegetables with it for a soup OR adding a spoonful right in before serving.

Size = 9 oz.

What is ghee?

Ghee is a traditional and sacred food and a staple of Ayurvedic medicine, an ancient tradition of medicine which prioritizes the healing powers of food. . It is essentially pure caramelized butter oil.

What are the health benefits of ghee?

Ghee made from cultured butter from the milk of grass-fed cows is exceptionally healthy! It is loaded with vitamins A, D, E, and K. It is also rich in butyric acid helpful for supporting healthy gut microbiomes & balanced gastrointestinal system. Ghee made from organic butter sourced from pasture-raised cows is also a natural source of conjugated linolenic acid (CLA), which is indicated to slow the progression of heart disease and some types of cancer. Ghee sourced from pastured cows additionally contains Omega 3 and Omega 9 fatty acids, which most people are generally deficient in. These fatty acids have been indicated as crucial to proper hydration, literally helping our cells to retain more water. Ghee is remarkably bioavailable, long prized for increasing nutrient absorption of fat-soluble vitamins and minerals from the foods and herbs with which it is paired. Actually able to pass through the lipid membranes of our cells, the nutrients that accompany foods and herbs cooked in, paired with, or infused into ghee can penetrate deeply into our bodies. For this reason, ghee has a long history of being used as a carrier oil (menstruum) for medicinal, herbal preparations. 

How long will Goddess Ghee remain shelf stable?

Once opened, if ghee is sealed well and doesn't acquire moisture it will keep without refrigeration for 3 months. If it's kept sealed and refrigerated it will keep for up to a year. We recommend storing in cool, dark, & dry place in the kitchen- like a pantry or shelf and always use a clean, dry utensil.
