Which ghee is good? cow or buffalo? and which brand?

I think Cow ghee is good and these 2 brands are better as compared to others,

Aashirvaad Svasti Ghee, 1L – https://www.amazon.in/Aashirvaad-Svasti-Ghee-1L...
Sri Sri Tattva Cow’s Pure Ghee,500ml (Pack of 2) – https://www.amazon.in/Tattva-Cows-Pure-Ghee-500...

Cow ghee is the best and traditional

Buffalo ghee has good taste and also helps in gaining weight but it doesn’t have much of nutritional value compared to cow ghee. Cow ghee has lots of nutritional value and also helps to reduce weight. In a nutshell cow ghee is better than buffalo ghee in terms of health.

If you want to purchase cow ghee online within:
₹500 to ₹600 Gowardhan ghee (best in class)
₹450 to ₹500 amul ghee, mother dairy and Nestle
₹400 to ₹450 Ananda gopaljee ghee (best cheapest ghee)

These are personally verified. If you want buffalo ghee. Vedaka buffalo ghee is also available in Amazon

I would recommend go with desi cow ghee. Better if you get it from local farmers or local dairy so that it must be more authentic compare to buying ghee pockets from shops.

If you wont get it from local farmers then Buy it from below link. Personally I used it and recommending. I cost is comparatively high due authentic one.

cow ghee of local breed starts from 1k/kg here. That aroma can’t be found in markets.

And yes all mentioned above are pure, just source makes difference in quality.

Nandini cow ghee is only available in Karnataka but its really good. Nearly indistinguishable from home-made ghee( prepared from Nandini milk itself). Priced at Rs 470/L.

Gowardhan cow ghee

If you want real ghee try looking locally. Those who have lot of cows sometimes sell ghee as they have extra. In our grandparents house we had cows, ghee was extracted. That aroma is unmatched, also the purity obviously. I’m not even sure but i think all the ghee being sold online are adultered one way or the other. But I still ordered one Ashirvaad one after looking at positive reviews. Hope it’s least adultered. This is where living in a city is disadvantageous.

Prefer the same over other brands

We make ghee at home from cow milk but not for selling purpose

Buy cow ghee if your lifestyle is comparatively inactive (sitting work) , as its nature makes it easier to digest than buffalo ghee.
Buffalo ghee is more suitable if you are burning calories and your work includes physical strain.

Not sure of brands (gowardhan, mother dairy and aashirwad are good according to me)

Living almost in punjab, i could tell thats not the real “branded” costing
Verka (of Punjab govt) and Vita (of Haryana Govt) here sell cow ghee 20-25 rupees in premium over buffalo ghee (both remain around 420-450 in costing)
So not sure how that figure of 800 came (you might be talking of real ghee not manufactured on commercial scale)
And yes, buffalo ghee is better but one needs real exercise to burn the nutrition that it contains, cow ghee is much lighter
Have been eating both since childhood , so can make the difference on an individual scale atleast, it might or might not be correct in general

….most of the brands sell jersey cow ghee which is nothing but fat….mostly discarded fat in europe….

….If u have any connection in haryana or punjab …buy buffalo ghee….

…Otherwise cow ghee is available in all kind of fancy boxes…

………..agree with you

Hmm.. That sounds good.
But commercially we dont know which breeds they use and all kinds of adulteration is present in both (cow and buffalo ghee)

…Actually you need to understand the costing…milk yielding buffalo cost a minimum of 85000 rs now….but minimum means lesser quality….

..So think if you invest 1 lakh rs in a cattle and rear it ….you can’t sell milk and ghee cheaply…

…Cows milk has less protein , less nutrients and its less viscous….thats why cows milk is cheap and it digests easily…

…But buffalo’s milk is quality….

True
Due to slight milk intolerance and higher sitting hours, i prefer cow milk

Yes. The general opinion/consensus is that KMF doesn’t resort to adulteration because it is a govt organisation. The ghee doesn’t taste like vanasapti and would taste kind of good if you have not tasted ghee made in villages.

Personal experience, I don’t like the ghee unless there is no choice as I have been spoilt by grandma made ghee from desi cattle (A2 variety)

Price is very attractive

For Ghee always go for direct brands of Milk Dairies – Nandini, Heritage, Dodla, Amul
Don’t go for brands which doesn’t have own diaries and procure them from other Dairies – Aashirwad (ITC doesn’t have any dairy), Britannia

Best Ghee Is Of Buffalo.

If there will be a good ghee then it will be in liquid form in summer.

Don’t much know about brand. Real ghee in my village costs Rs.800/Kg (Buffalo)

….Off topic….has anyone drank camel’s milk….first time i found it yuckk….second time in tea it was ok….third time it was ok again but very light and it digests easily..
