For over 50 years, we have been a household name in Mathura, the birthplace of Krishna, known for authentic, handcrafted food. Today we take you behind the scenes of our purest A2 desi cow ghee, a golden treasure made with tradition and love. What exactly is A2 desi cow ghee, and how is it made? Let us take the journey.
Purity starts with the milk
Our A2 desi cow ghee begins with pure, natural ingredients. We source milk from indigenous desi cows that naturally produce only the A2 beta-casein protein, which some find easier to digest than the A1 protein in regular milk. This focus on A2 milk is the foundation of our ghee.
The bilona method: a time-tested tradition
We preserve age-old practices. Our A2 desi cow ghee is made by the traditional bilona method, passed down through generations:
- Curd first: fresh A2 milk is gently cultured into curd.
- Hand churning: the curd is hand-churned in a wooden bilona for an authentic touch in every batch.
- Slow simmering: the butter is simmered over low heat until it becomes pure, golden ghee with a rich aroma.
More than flavour
- Easier digestion: A2 milk may be gentler on the stomach, which can carry into the ghee.
- Nutrient rich: it may offer vitamins A, E, and K along with beneficial fatty acids.
- Immune support: A2 ghee is believed to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
