Move over coconut oil, make some room for Ghee. Tin Star Foods make a Cultured and Brown Butter Ghee and these bitches are ruling my kitchen! I’m trying to get my kids accustomed to the new flavor profile because it is so much better for them than regular butter. Obviously, after one taste, I was addicted. You can buy it here or at Erewhon market.
Ghee is quickly becoming known as a superfood butter-alternative that can actually aid in weight loss and is widely encouraged by Paleo enthusiasts because it contains no lactose. Tin Star Foods’ Cultured Ghee has been replacing butter in grilling, stove top cooking, baking, and of course, in butter coffee. But what is it? Here is the breakdown:
1) Ghee is butter, but a specific form of clarified butter (yes, still dairy)
2) Ghee does not contain lactose, making it safe for those that are lactose-intolerant and/or follow a paleo diet
3) You can use ghee as a butter replacement in cooking, baking, grilling, and spread on your favorite piece of bread. Many are also adding ghee to their coffee instead of milk
4) Ghee is 100% casein free, high in Vitamin D, Tonalin CLA, healthy fatty acids, and other essential nutrients that can aid with weight loss
Brown Butter
OH yes… the Brown Butter, lovingly called a Caramel Kiss of Perfection, is just that. Its buttery, nutty, caramel in a bottle. Don’t drink it. (you will want to).
They gently allow the milk solids to toast allowing the flavor profile of this gorgeous ghee to develop. Just like the trademark Cultured Ghee, it is lab tested Lactose and Casein free. Its the perfect pair for an afternoon scone or in your buttered coffee in the morning. Our customers love to grill and and bake with it, as the deep rich flavor is unparalleled.
Cultured Ghee
The Classic – the Cultured Ghee is perfection in butter form. They slow cook their cultured butter over an open flame, just the way Hima, the owner, learned from her mama. It’s got a rich buttery flavor that allows any dish to come alive with little effort. High in k2, D, E, and Tonalin CLA its a no brainer to add it to your daily meal plan.
They tell new customers to flavor with it like butter, and cook with it like a cooking fat.
It’s extremely high heat threshold of 485 degrees makes it perfect for the stove top or grilling. Ghee is a dream to bake with and delicious in coffee too.
