So now I've made 3 things with the Ghee, and it is great!
Just under $6.00 for a small jar, about 8oz, or so. A little goes a long way.

There is a store not to far from me and I saw various bottle of GHEE up on the shelves but I had no idea what this was. I just researched this product on google. It says Ghee is all saturated fat but it lowers cholesterol.

All I need to know is this. Is Ghee better for making my sprout patties (and anything else I make in my frying pan), well it is healthier than using vegetable oil. I don't fry with olive oil. I just saute with olive oil.

But when I do my patties, I have to use oil. Is Ghee a healthier alternative?

I wouldn't use much. I don't deep fry or anything like that.

I never knew I could use this product. Doesn't have any carbs that I know of, right?

Thanks much

Melody
