    We want to share our passion for efficient, sustainable homesteading that brings the family together. On our homestead we do chemical-free gardening, grass-fed milk and beef, pastured eggs and broiler chickens, and free range children :) We love to go on adventures as a family, so if we're not workin on the farm, we're probably hiking or out getting ice cream. We're all into DIY, and being inventive and creative. We believe in homesteading that's sustainable, not just sustainable homesteading. In other words, we want to show you that homesteading doesn't have to wear you out to the point that you give it up. We've seen it happen, and almost came to that point ourselves. So go ahead and take a whack at that subscribe button if you'd like to join us on this crazy ride. Get ready to learn and be inspired!

    Dear Michelle, a good idea. As an M.D. in nutritional medicine for more than 40 years, I can attest to this from my practice. Ghee is really perfect for people with lactose intolerance and milk protein intolerant. Many can tolerate some dairy products again after 9-12 months. Preferably full-fat and fermented such as yogurt, kefir and quark. Quark is typically German, you can make it yourself. Curd is a dairy product made by heating sour milk until it curdles and then straining it. The finished product is firm and has a particularly high protein content. very healthy. Thank you so much for this video.

      Similarly, I've known people that research these things and they've recommended ghee, as well. It's also interesting to note from these people, as well as a history podcast that I subscribe to, indicated that milk, wheat, barley, etc. were never traditionally eaten 'unprocessed' as we do today. What I mean by that is that historically, people across even ancient Mesopotamia and the world-at-large used to have to ferment or at least water bath all their grains and milk (i.e., yogurt) prior to consuming, since humans were never greatly adapted to these food items in their immediate, unfermented, or unprocessed (not to be confused with industrialized processing though) state. Barley was used in Mesopotamia but they would even "process" it (leave in water) at the least one night before consuming due to how it breaks down a certain component to aid in human digestion and get more nutrient content from the grain. Today, it's just grown, some good tidbits are removed ("whole" wheat isn't always completely "whole" for instance), and ground into flour as is. But, that's just what I've heard through the grapevine...still a really interesting topic and field of study for you though! :)

    Hi. I am not sure if anyone has already addressed this in the comments, but you should wait longer to remove the solids from the top, then you have much less leftovers, and they are firmer so you can strain them and get the most ghee out of it.

    michelle ur skin is looking amazing- i also struggle w adult acne, ive been DF for abt a decade but was still having bad hormonal acne. i just recently cut gluten in summer and after a couple months not only is my skin completely different but my periods are a fraction of the discomfort/life disturbance they used to be. excited for u to be experimenting with cutting dairy. i know sourdough works for some ppl who are sensitive to gluten though!! some ppl are fine w both gluten and dairy, for other ppl like us it causes inflammation in our bodies!!!! thanks for always posting such informative content.

    You don’t need to skim it, you just need to keep stirring it until the milk solids sink to the bottom.

    Hi im from Tamizhnaadu...we make our ghee, you no need to skim all those foam...just leave it in simmer after an 1/2hr or 1hr all the milk solids goes to the bottom, when i turn off the heat i add moringa leaves for a beautiful aroma n iron contents. Then filter it...store it in glass bottles...

    My mum in law sent us ghee from Pakistan from cows she owned and took care of.
    I kept it refrigerated and I was the only one handling it. My husband didn’t eat it often and the kids didn’t like the smell and it lasted us 5 years without a single speck of mould. You may think ugh but I can attest it’s was perfectly edible till the day it finished. So yes he’s a good shelf like as long as there’s no contamination.
    Love your show ❤️ God bless

    We are a dairy allergy household too, lactose and Casein I do know ghee contains butyric acid. It helps maintain gut health by supporting growth of healthy bacteria. It also reduces inflammation of the digestive tract to help the absorption of nutrients. So not only is it anti-inflammatory, it is an immune booster as well. The CLA in ghee is also beneficial in lowering bad cholesterol. A bonus is it's high smoke point, suitable for high temp cooking without breaking down into harmful compounds. An overall win win 🙌

    Bring on the seed catalogs!!! Online the ghee looks just like honey. Winter is a time for a break, visiting friends and relatives, reading gardening books and putting my feet up. Merry Christmas and a happy New Year from TN. God bless y'all and keep growing.

    After you strain the ghee you should put it back in a clean pot, allow to come back to gently bubbling, continue to heat until it stops making bubbles that break the surface.
    Should look like it's moving under the surface but no bubbles.
    Your ghee has liquid in it thus its too loose. Ghee should be solid like crisco.

    I made ghee a couple years ago. It seems to be storing well in the cupboard. I like the oven method. Less likely to scorch the butter.

    Ghee is the BEST fat for cooking, browning, sauteeing, etc! And to not have all that butter taking up freezer space is an amazing benefit.
