Quality & Ingredients
Is this product from grass-fed cows?
Yes! Grass-fed is an important characteristic of our product. We have done significant research into the best, most grass-fed butter money can buy in the United States, and we believe we have found the best source out there. It's from an organic dairy in Northern California, where we are told the Cows have access to pastures and naturally growing coastal grasses at least 10 months per year, more than 19 hours per day.
How do I know for sure if your ghee is grass-fed?
Quality grass-fed ghee is vibrant yellow because it contains beta carotenes that only come from grass and not grain diets. Grain fed ghee products will be a paler yellow.
Isn’t ghee made from butter? How is it lactose-free?
In our cooking process when butter is heated it separates into 3 ingredients - water (which is boiled off), golden oil, and milk solid. The milk solids contain all the lactose in butter, and we go to great lengths to strain them out, so what is left is just the golden oil - ghee!
Is it casein-free?
Yes! All of the lactose / casein is strained out in the boiling process.
Is your ghee Kosher?
Yes! We are Kosher Certified through cRc Kosher.
Is your ghee Gluten-Free?
Yes! All our products are Gluten-Free and produced in a Gluten-Free, peanut and tree nut free facility.
Is this product Certified Organic?
Yes! All of our products are Certified Organic by the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship.
What are the health benefits of ghee?
Ghee is a source for vitamins, antioxidants, and healthy fats. While fat should be consumed in moderation, studies show that eating fatty foods such as ghee can help the body absorb some essential vitamins and minerals. Cooking healthy foods and vegetables with ghee may help you absorb more nutrients.
While ghee is rich in fat, it also contains high concentrations of monounsaturated Omega-3s. These healthful fatty acids support a healthy heart and cardiovascular system. Studies show that using ghee as a part of a balanced diet can help reduce unhealthy cholesterol levels.
Packaging & Usage
Why are people putting this in coffee?
Many folks are looking for alternatives to milk, cream, or artificial creamer for their coffee. This may be because they are on a paleo or ketogenic diet, or because they are lactose intolerant, or are looking for healthy lifestyle hacks. Ghee is often used as this alternative, and if you wish to try it we recommend adding a teaspoon of ghee to a cup of coffee in a blender for best results.
Are your products BPA-free? How are they packaged?
Yes! Our ghee and honey is bottled in glass jars with metal lids. Our popcorn kernels come in a food-safe kraft style pouch.
Will ghee liquify in the summer heat during shipping?
Ghee melts at 95 degrees fahrenheit, so depending on your location, during the summer months, you may receive a partially melted jar of ghee. This is entirely normal and will in no way impact the quality of the product.
If you wish to solidify your melted jar, we recommend removing the lid and placing your jar in an oven, set on low, to first fully liquify the contents. Once complete, put the lid back on and place in a refrigerator for a few hours. Your ghee will be solidified and can now be stored at room temp outside of your fridge.
Pricing
Why can't I use my discount code?
Discount codes only work if you select the full price option for purchasing our products. We don't mix and match discounts, so the 10% off for recurring orders option is a solo discount and won't work with discount codes.
Do you offer wholesale pricing for stores and large orders?
Yes, we sure do. You can order by the case (12 jars) for a wholesale price on Faire.
