Ghee is a type of clarified butter that originates from the Indian subcontinent and is a staple in many traditional Indian dishes. It is made by simmering butter until the milk solids have separated and the water has evaporated, leaving behind a golden, aromatic liquid. The remaining milk solids are then strained out, resulting in a clear, rich, nutty-tasting fat that is highly versatile in cooking. Its high smoke point allows it to be used for sautéing, frying, and roasting, and it adds a deep, satisfying flavor to dishes. Not only used in cooking, Ghee is also revered for its health benefits, such as improving digestion and reducing inflammation. It's also lactose-free, making it a great alternative for those who are lactose intolerant. In baking, it can be used as a butter substitute. The shelf-life of ghee is quite long and it can be stored at room temperature for months without going bad.

Ghee can typically be found in a grocery store in the cooking oil section or the international food aisle, specifically near the Indian food products. It may also be located in the dairy or health food section. If you cannot find it, you can ask a store employee for assistance.
