WHY A2 DESI COW BILONA METHOD GHEE IS SO EXPENSIVE AND PUREST FORM?

It takes 20-25 liters of milk to produce just approx 1 liter of Desi Ghee. In summer, it’s even harder to
extract ghee, pushing milk usage to 32 liters. In village, cow milk costing 60 Rs per liter on
average, the milk alone costs 1500 Rs for 25 liters.



The cost of milk is not the same each day, every day, sample tested on machine, which tells SNF & Fat, lets keep it simple i.e. of what ever fat of the milk comes it is multiplied by X 10. For example if fat in milk is 7, it will be multiplied with 10, and milk costs 70 Rs. Per litre and so on.. Then there is Cost in labor, utensils, cow dung cakes, electricity, wood, breakage, transportation, and packing is extra. This Authentic bilona method, ensures purity, unlike cheaper alternatives with possible adulteration.”



GIVE IT A THOUGHT : HOW ONE CAN GET SO CHEAP GHEE IN MARKET OF XXXX BRANDS, WHEN THE COST OF ALONE MILK IS SO MUCH, BILONA NOT POSSIBLKE AT ALL, INFACT CREAM MILK GHEE USES THE SAME MILK QUANTITY THAT ALSO COST 1200 & ABOVE

BILONA GHEE-MAKING PROCESS

1. Allowing the calf to drink its mother’s milk first, followed by washing the cow’s nipples
(Thann). Milk is then hand-milked from grass-fed cows.

2. The milk is stored in earthen pots / Tamba (Ghada / Matka) over a slow fire fueled by cow dung
cakes for 7-8 hours. Thick cream forms on top, giving the milk a yellowish hue. Please note yellow color of the cow ghee depends on the feed, weather etc, if green grass is given then the ghee will be yellowish, if dry grass along with other nutritional feed , then the ghee looks creamish in color.

3. Once the milk temperature comes down to 38-40 degrees Celsius, it is transferred to
another pots (Ghada / Matka) to culture into curd overnight using a starter culture (Khatti
Chaach or Dahi).

4. The next morning, thick curd with cream is churned by hand using a wooden bilona
stick for 30-45 minutes, adding water during the process. The butter (Makkhan) that forms is
collected in an other earthen pot, leaving behind, liters of buttermilk (lassi) & what is left it small amount of white makkhan.

5. The makkhan is heated slowly to produce 1000-1100 ml of the purest A2 Desi Cow Bilona
Ghee from Cow breeds like Gir, Kankrej, Sahiwal, and Red Sindhi Cows. This entire process
takes 2-3 days and is prepared fresh we don’t stock.
