‘Substitute for ghee’ had been a much-typed keyword until some nutritionists and dieticians certified it to be aiding weight loss. Ghee, they said, is loaded with health benefits that any other cooking medium can never compensate.
Ghee or clarified butter contains 64% saturated fat that comprises fatty acids. These fatty acids promote our gut health. Besides, ghee also has antioxidant and fat-soluble vitamins A, D, K, and E, quickening the weight loss.
Dairy-free Cooking Medium
There is a popular trend of veganism that promotes a dairy-free diet. And hence, they look for plant-based cooking mediums other than ghee. Several other plant-based cooking mediums can be used as a substitute for ghee. Such cooking mediums include coconut oil, mustard oil, canola oil, sunflower oil, rice bran oil, etc.
Virgin coconut oil which is also one of the most popular cooking mediums, has 40% more healthy fat than ghee. But we don’t want the smell and flavor of coconut in all our food. Do we?
For instance, take up virgin olive oil, which is said to be heart-healthy oil that also promotes healthy skin and hair. Virgin olive oil has a low smoking point and turns toxic when heated.
Among all cooking mediums, ghee has the highest smoking point at 252 degrees centigrade, followed by canola oil at 204 degrees Celsius, sesame oil and coconut oil at 177 Celsius, and butter the lowest smoking point between 120-150 degrees Celsius. Hence, ghee fares much above all its substitutes when it comes to cooking.
Grass-fed Ghee
The process of making ghee also has a significant impact on its quality and nutritional benefits. Supreme quality organic ghee comes from the milk of a cow that is fed on organic grass. These are called grass-fed ghee. Grass-fed milk and the butter and ghee extracted from it are optimally loaded with beta-carotene, omega-3 fat, CLA or conjugated linoleic acid, and vitamin E.
Research shows that pasture-fed dairy products are nutrient-dense and have higher Omega 3 and CLA content at 147% and 125%, respectively, compared to grain-fed milk and dairy products.
