you probably dont give a damn but does any of you know of a tool to log back into an instagram account..? I was stupid lost my account password. I would love any tips you can give me
Wow the only channel that explains so clearly without unnecessary add-ons. Straight to the point. From milk to ghee. Thanks a lot. Definitely will do and let you know
This is the age-old classic traditional method of making ghee in southern India. This is also the method of making the best kind of ghee. There's a point in the ide that buttermilk must be skimmed before sunrise. It's because butter tends to separate easily when the climate is cool. Here's a little trick - just add a few ice cubes or ice-cold water (instead of room temperature water) and watch the butter separate like magic!
This is how it is done in Punjab and also in Kolkata, butter was used up in various ways and when it accumulated, ghee is made of it. .A national practice, though now the blender has replaced the humble madaani in many kitchens.
You remind me of my grandmother who used to churn a really big pot of buttermilk and extract butter every morning. I still remember that beautiful sound.
Never had a better explanation of the process, even from my own mum. Thank you for being a blessing and teaching the fundamentals. I feel like my own Heart Mother is teaching me. I thank you for bringing the awareness of sound and aroma, that’s how my Aaji and Masi used to teach me, and it makes my love of all things Kitchen and Cooking, the seat of Creation within the home. Bless you Ma🙏🏼. Love from Urvashi
Thank you!!! My Ammama (mother's mother) taught me to do this when I was in my teens. Loved the process and wanted to continue the tradition but times have changed so much.
You hv reminded me of my childhood days Geeta when my dadi n mom used to make butter n ghee at home ... wow what a fragrance, sound, aroma ... I can feel the fragrance while you were making this .... I am 66yrs old n live in UK .... but after seeing you Geetaji, I am definitely make butter n ghee both at home .... I had friends in college, one from Andhra Pradesh, amother from Tamil Naidu n still another from Kerela. We were a group of 5 myself sikh, n another sikh girl from Thailand. Every friday in turn we wud eat south indian and punjabi food in each others' house, my father used to take us out for south indian food every other day, we all are vety fond of dosa idli uthapam ... all kinds ... you hv brough back all my memories. LOVU
Your husband must be really the most happiest guy who has been blessed with such a great wife, who is so health conscious, so innovative, so hard worker, and so on...
I want to make ghee and have been looking at many videos. I like the way you do it. I didn't know about curd, though, so I looked in the comments and found your answer about yogurt. I know how to do that already, so now I can make the ghee in the traditional way. I really enjoyed your video, and you are a perfect teacher! God has blessed you with a wonderful mind and soul.
Ma'am I was in the process of making butter by churning with hand while watching your video. You have such a pleasant demeanour and how clearly you explain each step. It's so calming to watch. And I so hope that these wonderful traditions of culinary are never lost. Thank you.
When i was young, i have watched my mother make homemade ghee, butter, mund dal halwa, sherbet etc. Though she would call me to watch, i was least interested. I watch your videos to remember the fine nuances which slipped my eye. Thanku Geeta. Though i must share i enjoy cooking now n my family says I'm a great cook 😊
Aunty... I just can't tell you how happy I am right now watching your video... It is as if though an aunt of mine/some elder in the family teaching a young member how to make butter and ghee... The way you explain, talking about the salasalappu, the sound of churning, you make us enjoy the whole art of cooking... It was a pleasure watching you teach us...
M'am you reminded me of my mother who I lost about a year ago, both your love for cooking and the contents of this video. God bless you. Stay healthy and stay safe !🙏🙏
Thanks madam. You remind me of good memories of my childhood in village, where my great grandma used to give me the duty of churning for hours on Sunday morning. Without this task done, I will not get breakfast. Still remember that aroma of pure ghee, we used to eat the remains of the ghee after it was was strained by a plain white cloth. Never ever tasted such pure ghee in my whole life.
I have started watching your videos for the past one week aunty, and i have become a fan of you and uncle. Thank you for all your videos. This video has such clear instructions thank you.
Mam...butter n ghee gurinchi pakkaki pedthe...mee English..chala bagundhi.. explanation,words...nak maa English mam gurthochindhi... really u r awesome.. fantastic.. fabulous.. beautiful
What an endearing video. Even those who don’t like cooking will be motivated to cook with the way you have brought out the therapeutic effects of cooking! Like you rightly said, the colors, sounds, fragrances and flavours are what cooking is all about. And enjoy it, we must. Thank you Gita 🙏
Ma'am you are a mother figure to me...I love your lucid manner of explaining each and every step of any recipe you share with your viewers! A big God 🙌 bless and loads of love ❤ ❤
Thank you aunty for explaining this process in a simplified way. Very beautifully explained. You reminded me of the way how my mom and mom in law explains a recipe. All the good wishes .i truly appreciate your efforts to pass on the traditional recipes to the younger generation with the help of technology.
I was looking for a video on how to make butter from curd.....this was perfect.....and seeing this, i cannot but only Thank the Mother Cow from my bottom of my heart on how she provides the humans so many options to satisfy our taste buds & our health...imagine she not giving milk , for us to enjoy these things....Hundred thanks to her !!
Lovely video. Thanks for sharing. To all the North Indians saying this is not the right way because they do it differently, please understand that there can be more than one way of doing something. Also, this is the *ayurvedic* way. Cream from curd is supposed to yield better quality ghee from the ayurvedic perspective. Stop being narrow minded and scoffing at everything that is different from your way of doing things. No hate.
I remember my paati making this exactly the same way.. she also used to use the ghee residue mix it with sugar and some flour calling it Maav chakarai! She used to put some drumstick leaves when the ghee was going “salla salla”.. my god thanks for this video. Bought back so many memories
Oh...its nostalgic for me.. we had a large fmly n bought 3 ltrs of buffalo milk everyday...i had seen my grand mother removeing cream from the milk everyday n adding a tsp of curd every time n collecting ig for 3-4 days. Today at age 62..I hv seen a different method...mkg curd then removing top layer n storing it in d fridge (may be at that time they removed cream from milk n added curd everyday to d vessel as very few homes had refrigerators ).thanks Gitaji. .younger generation will benefit from ur video!
Thank you! You explained it so well. It was very enlightening to see the whole process - demonstrated with joy, simplicity and with respect for the task.
My grand mothet use to do this by putting it in glass bottle like old boost bottles and shake it patiently till big ball of butter float in it. However while doing this the gas forms in the bottle which had to be released by opening the bottle lid. Thanks to u madam u reminded me of my childhood days when fresh ghee was made at home by my grand ma. I miss her very much. U also talk like her very lovingly...
Amma, the way you experience cooking, as you said , the aroma, the sound and the vibrant colours, makes me also to enjoy my cooking. Your English is so good with clarity in your presentation
Thank you so much Madame for this wonderful video. This is by far the best video I have come across for making ghee at home. Your explanations are simplistic yet thorough. Thanks once again.
Ma'am..... I am in awe of your simplicity. The method of delivering the videos gives me a call to "TRY ". I love cooking,but I fear the mess for want of space. Ma'am.... God bless your hard working hands. I will definitely try some chutneys as well as your buttermilk & ghee
This is awesome. Living overseas I always wondered how to make ghee from white butter. I remember my Amma making this. Thanks heaps. I am already a fan.
I just loved the way you described the process of cooking. Cooking is indeed an art. I love to keep my whole spice container always filled up and love the smell of the spices. I absolutely love to own the fact that India is a land of different spices. Thanks for a great video. I straightaway subscribed after watching this video... Love you a lot for this 4 in 1 video...
My grandmother used to do churning butter from buttermilk on all festival days..she says just as the butter comes out from inside buttermilk,God should bless to bring out happiness from within us..butter churning is mandatory in my home on Pongal,diwali and vijayadasami..my grandmother used to add a piece of jaggery (good for heart) and some fresh drumstick leaves(good for high pressure) and a very few Fenugreek seeds to the ghee she prepares...Nice video and all the best :-)
Indian traditions and culture are awe-inspiring and a well thought-out process for perhaps centuries. Ageless, timeless and classical. One who becomes conscious of this fact, acknowledges and attunes oneself to the mercy becomes blessed. And kitchen technology sustains one’s very life. And that of others too!
Happy women's day Geeta madam,💐💐 you explained the process and all the stages of the ghee making process very well so that anybody is doing it for first time will be able to do it confidently. I always make ghee, using cream of full cream milk,i use to collect cream every day keep it aside in another vessel( in refrigerator)till it will become full and then add apropriate amount of curd mix it well and keep it overnight at room temperature,next day I use this mixture for churning in food processor using whipping blade ,so it becomes easy to do in large amount and as compare to mixer we get more quantity of butter, I also add one or two betel leaf (विड्याचे पान /खायचे पान) and 2-3 cloves(लवंग) in butter when we put it on the flame ,due to betel leaf bitterness if any will reduce and due to clove we get nice aroma (खमंग)and flavor , some people also add a pinch of salt while making process so we can get coarse texture(रवाळ) of ghee ,but when we add salt you shouldn't keep that ghee in steel vessel otherwise after some time that vessel will get rust.
Thank you for your detailed feedback Aparna. it was very interesting to read. I find that South Indians generally make it from curd, and North Indians from milk malai.We add curry leaves/Drumstick leaves to make it more flavourful.I have used the blender jar as many might not have a food processor.Thanks once again
this is the most traditional way of making ghee. thank you for sharing this information. my mother used to collect cream directly from milk. in ayurved it is said that ghee made from curd has even better healing properties.
dg383 I have also heard the same ples clarify this if u have knowledge regarding this , I heard that fermented curd in making ghee is much more healthier than any other way of making
Super mam....this is d greatest video ever i saw ..which has all step very clearly...N more importantly old ppl how dey were doing ..super ..just super😊☺️☺️☺️☺️👍👌💐
wow superb mam but I used take malai from the milk and prepare ghee but u did it in different way mam.And finally I would like to say very happy women's day.
But the actual process is how she make. Without making curd you should not make Ghee. Fermentation makes ghee lighter to digest and healthy. So do one thing day before making ghee add one spoon of curd to the malai and next day follow the same pattern you will get ghee.
U r so lovely Geeta ji and I believe whoever taught you cooking was a great teacher because when you talk about food ur love towards food we can sense.
Thank you mam for making me pay attention to hear the soothing sounds of cooking...it made me so happy more than anything else....kitchen is really a creative place...
Something new I learnt today. My mum used to make butter (makkhan) from churning malai collected from boiling milk every day. Then from that butter she used to make deshi ghee, which is s beautiful whitish in colour and grainy in texture.
Aunty you look like my mother. She was also enjoyed every thing about cooking just like u. Today I am missing her so much and coincidencly I just got ur video. Today first time I m trying to make ghee in home but now my mother is not in this world to guide me. I really feel peaceful while watching u.
So wonderfully explained! Thank you ma'am. I am churning with the wooden stick at the moment. And getting wonderful butter out of my curd, thanks to your help. Eternally grateful to you :)
Thanks aunty .. love u lot..i have prepared butter and ghee.. but my curd was not so accurate.. Will try it again today.. I almost saved Rs.1000 by preparing homemade ghee and butter.. thanks once again.
I remember my mom asking me to shake the cream in a horlicks bottle and then take out the butter.Finally the solid left after ghee making was made into a "KASHANDU URUNDAI" with some flour/rava/basen etc.Knowledge which were naturally passed on to the progeny ,it appears,is slowly fading out.With the present use and throw culture this appears tedious and a waste of time.My children laugh at me if I tell them this.For them this is just a story !
Yes Ravi. I have memories of the "Horlicks Bottle "too. Also I remember my mother sitting on the floor and tying the wooden churner with a rope to the leg of the stool. , she would sit down and churn the curd..Yesterday I was reminded about the kasandu which used to be mixed with arisi mavu and sakkarai and given to us.What a coincidence that you have mentioned it too!! Simple pleasures and tastes!
Further I was motivated to churn the curd sometimes using the "matthu"by saying I would become Lord Krishna if I churned more butter.Funnily we siblings used to fight to get the right depending on the seniority !
Childhood memories... Golden era of everybody's life.. Although we were not having electric equipments / gadgets , we were too much rich.., by all means.. In sharing, playing together, celebrati.g each n every festival with our parent (equally with our neighbours n relatives also)... Not having much toy , but having so many friends.. Not having sweets but whatever was there we shared it joyfully.. Golden days... Can not be forgotten never ever.. Every aged person also remembers his childhood.... 😒 😒
This is how my grandmother and her mother made ghee. Thank you for showing us this method about how it used to be done. I am now learning how to make ghee instead of just clarifying butter and I truly appreciate how you take us thru the entire process.
madam don't need to waste time n milk by adding curd every day better way is to collect the cream tht comes over the milk after heating of full cream milk and cooling down in refrigeration. keep collecting the milk cream and when say 1-2kg cream has been collected than follow the process of adding curd after warming the cream after keep the curd mixed cream for overnight in open the same can used to extract white butter and buttermilk by using juicer pot of usual mixie by mixing curd mixed cream in small quantity with double the quantity of normal water and ghee can produced by heating the white butter.
As I said, there are different methods. We do this method, because as a routine, in South indian households, we set curd everyday.Your method is also very good.
but ur method waste lot of milk in the name of making butter when only cream is required to make butter and not milk also if u use less milk than it would take more time to make butter hence better to extract cream daily after boiling the full cream milk and than make butter on weekends rather than waste whole milk in the name of making butter since curd is required small quantity if kept for long/days incase made in large quantity than will become sour in taste or else keep getting surplus accumulated everyday as per ur process .
Thank u so much for beautifully explaining.. My mom is on her trip and I wanted to surprise her by making ghee before she come back! Ur vedio helped me a lot.. !😍 U TAUGHT ME JUST LIKE MY MOM WITH SO MUCH CARE.. Love u ❤️❤️
She explains it slowly talks very convincingly and seems to be enjoying herself while doing it. It all makes it very enjoyable and happy video. Keep up the unprofessional regular attitude(though videos can use tech- editing and all) I think it will make videos more enjoyable. Respects to this mother like figure.
Simply beautiful Gita ji. Just today morning I converted 1kg of Coimbatore butter into ghee. The exact process and procedure to do so was extracted from the learning given so lovingly in your video. I simply find all your recipes irresistible. Cooking is an art, science and commerce. It is technology too. The more one immerses and experiments with the experience, the more love and skill one develops towards it. Thank you so much 🙏 I am your admirer from Bombay 🌼 I shortchanged the long process into a short one. Instead of starting from full fat milk, I started from Coimbatore butter (0.5kg from P. Ramalingam at Matunga on Baldota House; 26, Bhandarkar Road, Mumbai 400019 costs ₹340); (P. Ramalingam has recently increased the butter rate from ₹680/kg to ₹720/kg) I am not advertising or getting any referral income for sharing this. They are authentic and in existence since 1954. Only Mumbaikars have the opportunity to go to Ramalingam Stores). How much to boil, how to boil and when to stop; the sada sada or salla salla sounds are all bonafide and exactly as described in the video. I enjoyed the ghee making. Grateful and obliged. The best way to learn anything is to hear and observe from different gurus. To learn about the fine technical nuances of making ghee, also see the two UA-cam videos I have attached below: ua-cam.com/video/asLxQ0q2Z3w/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/biZWfF6DWTg/v-deo.html
Thank you Gita ma'am...I am a Goan but grew up in Hyderabad. You remind me of my kind South Indian neighbors. Congratulations to you on being a UA-camr
I LOVE how she talks about the lovely sounds and peace she experiences while doing this.
Yes. It's important to watch the sizzling sound. It indicates that there's still some moisture in the boiling ghee.
I agree
Yes, she is so genuinely observant and sensitive to it all. Love her vibrations.
you probably dont give a damn but does any of you know of a tool to log back into an instagram account..?
I was stupid lost my account password. I would love any tips you can give me
@Raphael Branson instablaster =)
Wow the only channel that explains so clearly without unnecessary add-ons. Straight to the point. From milk to ghee. Thanks a lot. Definitely will do and let you know
Thank you
This is the age-old classic traditional method of making ghee in southern India. This is also the method of making the best kind of ghee.
There's a point in the ide that buttermilk must be skimmed before sunrise. It's because butter tends to separate easily when the climate is cool. Here's a little trick - just add a few ice cubes or ice-cold water (instead of room temperature water) and watch the butter separate like magic!
Perfect
Even in north India it is done like this for ages
This is how it is done in Punjab and also in Kolkata, butter was used up in various ways and when it accumulated, ghee is made of it. .A national practice, though now the blender has replaced the humble madaani in many kitchens.
Perfect 👍
This is the practice since ancient India.
You remind me of my grandmother who used to churn a really big pot of buttermilk and extract butter every morning. I still remember that beautiful sound.
Never had a better explanation of the process, even from my own mum. Thank you for being a blessing and teaching the fundamentals. I feel like my own Heart Mother is teaching me. I thank you for bringing the awareness of sound and aroma, that’s how my Aaji and Masi used to teach me, and it makes my love of all things Kitchen and Cooking, the seat of Creation within the home. Bless you Ma🙏🏼. Love from Urvashi
You are very welcome
Your explanation of the process is so good.. Thank u so much ಅಮ್ಮ.
Thank you!!! My Ammama (mother's mother) taught me to do this when I was in my teens. Loved the process and wanted to continue the tradition but times have changed so much.
You are so welcome!

Thank you for your kind words Sonali
wow superb mam but I used take malai from the milk and prepare ghee but u did it in different way mam.And finally I would like to say very happy women's day.
Thank you Sandhiya. It can be prepared in both the ways
But the actual process is how she make. Without making curd you should not make Ghee. Fermentation makes ghee lighter to digest and healthy. So do one thing day before making ghee add one spoon of curd to the malai and next day follow the same pattern you will get ghee.
Even I used to make it the way u make, but my buttermilk always became bitter. But now I will also try Aunty's method. 😊
Dhiraj Pal bhai can I ask one question ples ?
Fermentation of the cream adds probiotic and helps the gut...avoid directly cooking it into ghee
U r so lovely Geeta ji and I believe whoever taught you cooking was a great teacher because when you talk about food ur love towards food we can sense.
Yes,Sheetal. Cooking is an art too. The sounds are magical(seasoning, pounding,sifting)!
Thank I like how the mother teaches great . I will watch every video.
I love 💕 your kindness we never knew each other but you have been a good person
Thank you mam for making me pay attention to hear the soothing sounds of cooking...it made me so happy more than anything else....kitchen is really a creative place...
Awesome " see cooking is all about sounds, flavours, fragrances, colors, you should enjoy every bit of cooking "
Yes, thank you
This is exact method for preparing butter from curd..😍
Our wonderful and prescious shudh Desi ghee made by our beautiful Gita hi thank you for this lovely video it was so great and excellently done!♥️👌🙏🏼
I'm so glad to have found your video! I loved your style! Feels really sweet and simple 😍 I can't wait to make ghee from curd😍😍
True I love the way you explain the recipes I tried making dosa batter like you had explained it turned out excellent now I shall try this as well
I was looking this for my 15 months kid to have original home made ghee.... Thanks again aunty :-)
Hope you enjoy
Amazing video, watching from West Africa, will definitely try this!
Something new I learnt today. My mum used to make butter (makkhan) from churning malai collected from boiling milk every day. Then from that butter she used to make deshi ghee, which is s beautiful whitish in colour and grainy in texture.
loved the way u explain while cooking .. 😊 waiting for your new recipes
Thanks

Thank you so much Priya. Your mother's blessings are always with you.Happy Deepavali. take care

Beautiful aunty..Both butter&u
Thank you Santhi.
Aunty ji, You have explained it with so much clarity! Thanks for this video. I ll start collecting cream from tomorrow itself.
Very nice Mam. U r super 😃
Thanks aunty .. love u lot..i have prepared butter and ghee.. but my curd was not so accurate.. Will try it again today..
I almost saved Rs.1000 by preparing homemade ghee and butter.. thanks once again.
I remember my mom asking me to shake the cream in a horlicks bottle and then take out the butter.Finally the solid left after ghee making was made into a "KASHANDU URUNDAI" with some flour/rava/basen etc.Knowledge which were naturally passed on to the progeny ,it appears,is slowly fading out.With the present use and throw culture this appears tedious and a waste of time.My children laugh at me if I tell them this.For them this is just a story !
Yes Ravi. I have memories of the "Horlicks Bottle "too. Also I remember my mother sitting on the floor and tying the wooden churner with a rope to the leg of the stool. , she would sit down and churn the curd..Yesterday I was reminded about the kasandu which used to be mixed with arisi mavu and sakkarai and given to us.What a coincidence that you have mentioned it too!! Simple pleasures and tastes!
Further I was motivated to churn the curd sometimes using the "matthu"by saying I would become Lord Krishna if I churned more butter.Funnily we siblings used to fight to get the right depending on the seniority !
Childhood memories... Golden era of everybody's life.. Although we were not having electric equipments / gadgets , we were too much rich.., by all means.. In sharing, playing together, celebrati.g each n every festival with our parent (equally with our neighbours n relatives also)... Not having much toy , but having so many friends.. Not having sweets but whatever was there we shared it joyfully.. Golden days... Can not be forgotten never ever.. Every aged person also remembers his childhood.... 😒 😒
This is how my grandmother and her mother made ghee. Thank you for showing us this method about how it used to be done. I am now learning how to make ghee instead of just clarifying butter and I truly appreciate how you take us thru the entire process.
Thank you
Happy Women's Day to our Shweet Gita Aunty ! Love you !!

Thank you so much Ma'am. You are an inspiration to all us youngsters. So much to learn from you
So nice of you
madam don't need to waste time n milk by adding curd every day better way is to collect the cream tht comes over the milk after heating of full cream milk and cooling down in refrigeration. keep collecting the milk cream and when say 1-2kg cream has been collected than follow the process of adding curd after warming the cream after keep the curd mixed cream for overnight in open the same can used to extract white butter and buttermilk by using juicer pot of usual mixie by mixing curd mixed cream in small quantity with double the quantity of normal water and ghee can produced by heating the white butter.
As I said, there are different methods. We do this method, because as a routine, in South indian households, we set curd everyday.Your method is also very good.
but ur method waste lot of milk in the name of making butter when only cream is required to make butter and not milk also if u use less milk than it would take more time to make butter hence better to extract cream daily after boiling the full cream milk and than make butter on weekends rather than waste whole milk in the name of making butter since curd is required small quantity if kept for long/days incase made in large quantity than will become sour in taste or else keep getting surplus accumulated everyday as per ur process .
Please make a video of your method, Amarjeet.
vallathn only saying give advise on doing butter/ghee preparation on weekly basis rather daily to save time n resources of ur audience
madam read the heading n recipe of the video its not for curd but for making butter no house in India makes butter everyday except dairy units
I made rasam at home after seeing your recipe... it was super delicious. I made idlis with rasam... my husband n myself enjoyed it so so much.
Thank you so much 🙂
Thank u so much for beautifully explaining.. My mom is on her trip and I wanted to surprise her by making ghee before she come back! Ur vedio helped me a lot.. !😍 U TAUGHT ME JUST LIKE MY MOM WITH SO MUCH CARE.. Love u ❤️❤️
Most welcome 😊
Both my mom & grand mom used to do this way...but don't know to put butter in water..thank you, will do this way from now on ..thank you
Thank you so much ma'am. The best explanation i've seen so far.
Thats lovely process! My mom used to add little turmeric n beetle leaf stalk in final stage of butter boiling for extea aroma...
She explains it slowly talks very convincingly and seems to be enjoying herself while doing it. It all makes it very enjoyable and happy video. Keep up the unprofessional regular attitude(though videos can use tech- editing and all) I think it will make videos more enjoyable.
Respects to this mother like figure.
Glad you enjoy it!
You explain everything like a mother explaines to her daughter.
Thanks Arti
You define the process of doing like as u feel..and how beautiful golden ghee made in a simple process. Thanks a lot
My pleasure 😊
Mami, you for sure are keeping the old traditions alive & passing it on to the next generation. Nandri 🙏
Thanks Shreyan
Lovely video. Thanks Gitaji for sharing.
Simply beautiful Gita ji. Just today morning I converted 1kg of Coimbatore butter into ghee. The exact process and procedure to do so was extracted from the learning given so lovingly in your video. I simply find all your recipes irresistible. Cooking is an art, science and commerce. It is technology too. The more one immerses and experiments with the experience, the more love and skill one develops towards it. Thank you so much 🙏 I am your admirer from Bombay 🌼
I shortchanged the long process into a short one. Instead of starting from full fat milk, I started from Coimbatore butter (0.5kg from P. Ramalingam at Matunga on Baldota House; 26, Bhandarkar Road, Mumbai 400019 costs ₹340); (P. Ramalingam has recently increased the butter rate from ₹680/kg to ₹720/kg) I am not advertising or getting any referral income for sharing this. They are authentic and in existence since 1954. Only Mumbaikars have the opportunity to go to Ramalingam Stores). How much to boil, how to boil and when to stop; the sada sada or salla salla sounds are all bonafide and exactly as described in the video. I enjoyed the ghee making. Grateful and obliged.
The best way to learn anything is to hear and observe from different gurus. To learn about the fine technical nuances of making ghee, also see the two UA-cam videos I have attached below:

Thankyou so much Sir . yes the sights and sounds of cooking make cooking an art as well as a science too.Your kind words keep us motivated
Hare Krishna Mataji, please accept my Pranams. Today I tried this and followed your instructions and came out perfectly. Thank you so much.
Wonderful Hare Krishna!
Thank you Gita ma'am...I am a Goan but grew up in Hyderabad. You remind me of my kind South Indian neighbors. Congratulations to you on being a UA-camr
So nice of you
