Which is the better substitute for ghee in the market?

by Pallavi Goswami content writer

Looking for a better substitute for ghee in the market? If yes, then there are several other options available like coconut oil, olive oil, sesame oil etc. But do they really have the potential to substitute ghee? To know the answer, we need to discuss in detail about ghee and its potentiality. Ghee is a clarified version of butter that has been boiled to remove the milk solids. The remaining part is pure milk fat that is packed with all the essential vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids that are crucial for our body and mind.


High smoke point: The smoke point of ghee is higher than most other cooking oils. The smoke point of ghee is 485⁰F. Sesame oil, olive oil or butter are not safe for high heat cooking methods. 


Storage-friendliness: Ghee is much more shelf-stable than butter. Butter needs refrigeration support to stay fresh but ghee can stay fresh at normal room temperature for 10-12 months from the date of manufacturing. 


Nutritional content: Ghee is a good substitute for butter, olive oil, coconut oil and all other refined oils, due to its rich nutritional value. You can get enough amounts of vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin E, and vitamin K by consuming ghee regularly. It is also a great source of essential fatty acids.


Even if you have dairy sensitivity, you need not worry about consuming ghee as it is completely lactose and casein-free. Ghee should be taken in moderation as it is high in fats. So, don't just look for a substitute for ghee, include this superfood into your diet and get multiple health benefits. Dieticians and nutritionists are recommending to use only grass-fed organic ghee for your daily diet.
