How to Store Desi Ghee So It Stays Fresh

Pure desi ghee keeps for months when stored properly. A few simple habits make all the difference.

  • Always use a clean, dry spoon. Moisture is ghee’s biggest enemy.
  • Keep the lid tightly closed and the jar away from direct sunlight and the stove.
  • No need to refrigerate. In winter it may solidify or turn grainy, which is completely natural.
  • To soften solid ghee, place the closed jar in a bowl of warm water for a few minutes.
