The interesting culinary History of ghee cooked rice

Ghee rice, a fragrant and flavorful dish, boasts a rich culinary history deeply rooted in Indian cuisine. This dish has evolved over centuries and is now a cherished part of various regional Indian cuisines. Here’s a brief overview of the culinary history of ghee rice:

Neychoru is a flavorful rice dish with its ancient traditional roots in the Indian state of Kerala. It is prepared by cooking rice in ghee (clarified butter), which contributes a rich and aromatic flavor.

  • Ghee rice has influenced cuisines beyond India’s borders. In Sri Lanka, for instance, “ghee rice” (known as “nehari” or “nei soru”) is a popular dish often served with curries and accompaniments.

Modern Adaptations:

  • Today, ghee rice recipes have evolved to cater to various dietary preferences. You can find vegetarian versions with vegetables, vegan adaptations using plant-based ghee, and fusion variations incorporating global ingredients.

  • 1 finely chopped carrot
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1 large garlic
  • 3 tablespoon ghee
  • 2 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 4 green chili
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg powder
  • 1 piece ginger
  • 1 cup basmati rice

  • Cook for a couple of minutes or until the onions are translucent.
  • Stir in the Rice and the water thoroughly.

Why grass-fed ghee is the best ingredient to cook ghee-cooked rice?

Grass-fed ghee is often considered the best ingredient for cooking ghee-cooked rice for several compelling reasons:

  • Rich Nutritional Profile: Grass-fed ghee is made from cows’ milk that primarily graze on natural grass and herbs. This results in ghee with a superior nutritional profile, including higher levels of essential nutrients like vitamins A, D, E, and K and beneficial fatty acids.
  • Enhanced Flavor: Grass-fed ghee has a rich, nutty flavor and a distinct aroma that can significantly improve the taste of ghee-cooked rice. It adds depth and flavor to the dish, making it more flavorful and enjoyable.
  • High Smoke Point: Grass-fed ghee has a high smoke point, typically around 450°F (232°C). It can handle high-temperature cooking without breaking down or developing a burnt taste. It is ideal for frying and sautéing rice and spices.
  • Lactose and Casein-Free: Grass-fed ghee is virtually free of lactose and casein, commonly found in regular butter. This makes it suitable for individuals with lactose intolerance or dairy allergies.
  • Gut-Friendly: Ghee-cooked rice made with grass-fed ghee may be easier to digest for some individuals due to its low lactose and casein content. It is often considered a gut-friendly option.
  • Nutrient Retention: Making ghee involves separating the milk solids from the butterfat, resulting in a longer shelf life. This also means that the nutrients in grass-fed ghee are more stable and less likely to degrade over time.
  • Ayurvedic Tradition: In Ayurveda, grass-fed ghee is highly regarded for its health-promoting properties. It is considered a sattvic food that can nourish the body and mind, making it a preferred choice for cooking traditional ghee rice dishes.

In summary, grass-fed ghee is favored for ghee-cooked rice due to its superior nutritional content, enhanced flavor, high smoke point, digestive benefits, and adherence to traditional culinary practices. It elevates the taste and adds a nutritional boost to this classic dish.
