Key takeaways
- Buffalo milk is naturally rich in milk fat, which makes its ghee thick and creamy.
- Ghee has a high smoke point, around 250°C, so it is stable for high-heat cooking.
- Slow cooking and natural cooling give buffalo ghee its classic danedar texture.
- Farm Dip ghee is 100% natural, with no preservatives, colours or additives.
What makes pure buffalo ghee special?
Buffalo milk carries more natural milk fat than cow milk, which gives buffalo ghee its creamy mouthfeel, dense texture and rich aroma.
Cooked the traditional way, buffalo ghee forms soft, creamy-white grains (danedar texture) that melt smoothly over hot rotis, parathas and rice.
Why cooks reach for buffalo ghee
Ghee has a high smoke point, around 250°C, so it does not burn easily during deep frying or a hot tadka. Spices release their aroma into the fat, which is what makes a ghee tadka smell the way it does.
