Unfortunately, adulteration of food is a huge issue in India and ghee is often adulterated. Mostly, coconut oil, almond oil, hydrogenated oils, and even animal fats are mixed with pure desi ghee<\/strong><\/a>. Many brands use such malpractices to sell their products at cheaper rates and earn some extra profit. Consuming adulterated food is harmful to your health and can make you fall sick as well. Hence, you should be an aware citizen and check your food for adulteration to ensure your and your family\u2019s safety.<\/div>\n

Mentioned below are a few ghee quality testing methods<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u200b<\/p>\n

Method 1<\/h3>\n

The simplest way to check the purity of ghee<\/a> is by heating it in a pan. First, put a pan on the stove and set the flame to medium. Allow it to heat for a while and then put a spoon of ghee in it. If the ghee melts immediately and turns darkish brown, it is the original cow ghee. On the other hand, the ghee is adulterated if it takes time to melt and turns yellowish.<\/p>\n

\u200b<\/p>\n

Method 2<\/h3>\n

The palm test is the second most common testing method used for checking the purity of ghee. Just put some ghee on your palm and wait for some time. If the ghee is pure, it will start melting. However, if it takes time to melt, the ghee has been adulterated.<\/p>\n

Method 3<\/h3>\n

The iodine test is not a common ghee quality testing method but it is surely an effective one. Melt a small amount of ghee and add iodine to it. If the ghee is adulterated, its colour will slowly change to blue. Under such circumstances, you must avoid consuming it.<\/p>\n

The aforementioned methods are the most common ghee quality testing methods you can use. However, you do not have to go through all this trouble if you buy ghee from trusted brands only.
