Use Clarified Butter for Cooking
Ghee is one of the most popular cooking oils. It is a clear liquid with a low to medium burn rate. It is derived from nuts, known as Nigella Sativa. Most people refer to Ghee simply as "sunflower oil." In this article, we will discuss a few uses of this cooking oil, as well as some considerations before using it.

Sunflower oil is good for deep frying because it has a very high smoke point (452 degrees Fahrenheit). This means that nutrients will not escape as easily from the food, which makes it safer to cook. Also, a higher smoking point means that the fat content is lower, which improves nutrition. As a substitute for Ghee, you can use sunflower oil at a ratio of ten parts sunflower oil to one part butter. You'll have to experiment a bit to find the perfect ratio, but the result will be worth the effort.

Ghee is also better for you than clarified butter. Because it is high smoke point, it may raise cholesterol levels beyond safe levels. That is not a concern when you are cooking a healthy meal, such as sunflower soup. However, if you are thinking about stir frying or deep frying food, you will want to use a lower smoke point clarified butter, which has less fat and more flavor. You'll also find that using ghee as a substitute for butter reduces the amount of calories you take in by almost 20 percent.



Finally, another great way to use ghee substitutes is to cook salad dressings, such as vinaigrette dressing for chicken or beef. Often, restaurants will use a cheaper brand of salad dressing, such as Balsamic, which is more expensive. If you do not like the taste of that type of dressing, you can just sub in your ghee substitute. Many salads taste better when eaten drizzled with olive oil instead of on the salad. The same goes for tuna or grilled salmon, as olive oil is a much better taste than fish oil.

When you are preparing to make substitute ghee for cooking, remember that some oils, such as olive oil, are higher in saturated fats than other oils. Therefore, these dishes may end up a little dry. That is not a problem, as the dishes will taste fine as they are. For example, when you cook pasta, you should always use a lower-sodium version than you would use in casseroles. As an olive oil substitute, though, your pasta dishes will taste better, and you will not be consuming as many calories.

If you have never cooked with ghee before, you may be concerned that it is too strong or oily for you. To make a suitable substitute, simply add a small amount at a time until you achieve the consistency of butter that you want. It will be a little greasy at first, but it will go away as you cook the meals. It is best to store the clarified butter in an airtight container. Refrigerate it if you are planning to use it in the future, and do not re-use the old one when you purchase the new one.
