Pure and Danedar Gir Cow’s Ghee made using Vedic Bilona Padati
Our Vedas too have prescribed 5 sanskaras (steps) to make the desi ghee.
- Boiling The first sanskar is where milk is boiled, ensuring it is free from bacteria. As per vedic tradition, we use milk of grass-fed desi cows in making ghee.
- Setting Curd Milk is set to curd and is placed in a room for fermentation before the churning process.
- Churning of curds in Bilona The curd is churned in an ancient vedic wooden churner called Bilona.
- Separating Makkhan/butter On churning curds, both butter and buttermilk are separated and butter/makkhan is transferred to the heating kadai.
- Heating makhan/butter The Makkhan is now heated over firewood on a slow flame, which results in Pure, Danedar Ghee.
