Just found your channel. Great info. Grass fed dairy also contains vitamin K2 which helps your body absorb calcium and is helpful in reducing risk of cardiovascular events. Plenty of info on KZbin from MD’s on the benefits. K2 is also in red meat, organ meat, and fermented vegetables.

Great comparison as always - thank you. Lately I have started having a liking for butter from India - a distinct buttery taste. Amul is the name of the brand that you might be able to procure at your local indian grocery store. Their butter have a combination of cow and buffalo cream, which gives it that unique flavour. As for Ghee, we use it exclusively for cooking (we make it at home with organic cultured butter), especially when you add a dollop of it after finishing a sauce or stew. These stores will have a great selection of Ghee as well - keep an eye out for the Amul Ghee brand as well. Great topic, and so much to dive into :-) Thank you as always.

Because of your comment I got to know that it's because they use bufallo milk as well 🤣🤣🤣🤣 thank you for that. Next time I go to the indian store m going to pic up a pack of amul butter

The “silage” that Kerry Gold feeds their cows in the winter is not corn free. Their website says as much (or did last time I checked). Because I’m so allergic I had to give up on it. Finlandia (the cheese company) also makes a pastured butter that I don’t react to. I buy it in the summer months at Bj’s Membership store in Northern Virginia but it’s likely available elsewhere. It’s comparable to the flavor of Kerry Gold.

I make my own butter from either my cow who hangs out in the pasture eating whatever she fancies or cream I buy from our local Mennonite dairy. I’m not real clear on the purpose of ghee other than it being a religious thing on what you can and cannot consume and dairy being one. But to me once you cook the milk out of it you no longer have butter you only have oil but it is shelf stable which butter isn’t. I am blessed to be able to raise all my own meat and have not had to buy in a store for thirty years. Homemade butter and lard are the two main items in my country kitchen well and bacon grease 😊 Your discerning pallet is quite unique thanks for sharing!!

There are also some French butters that are pretty good and Plugrá which has a French name but it is made in the US. I think one butter that has not received enough attention is the type that is made on the island of Corfu. The island in Greek is called Kerkyra, so the butter is named voutiro Kerkyras. It smells and tastes great because of the feed and the process with buttermilk.

You are on point bout the taste of ghee. Love your videos! It's so educational. We use a lot of ghee in indian households. When I came to US two years ago I was shocked to see the price of a bottle of ghee here. After the first purchase I decided to make it on my own and have been making it since. I started off making ghee using normal butter and now have moved on to grass-fed European butter. My American husband was shocked to see the first time I made a big jar of ghee. Now he knows how important it is to me. 😆

In my opinion organic butter is a waste of time. You get the taste and nutritional improvement from grass fed butter. Kerry gold from Costco is the best deal in USA (that I know of). If you have the means, then go for raw, organic grass pastured butter from a farm. But, for most people grass fed butter from something like Kerry gold at the grocery store works great.

Kerrygold and Horizon organic butter are my 2 favorite butter available locally. The darker gold the butter is the better it tastes. 😋 however I can see a seasonal difference in kerrygold. It turns lighter and the flavor wanes in the winter months, the supplement grain and hay then. And in the spring and summertime it darkens up and is fantastic. Personal opinion ghee is wretched stuff that smells like a barnyard when it gets hot, trust me I grew up raising cows. None in my house. LOL Thanks for a good video.

My pancreas is mostly non-functional and my doc told me that coconut oil is metabolized differently than dairy butter. I get it a kind from Healthy Traditions that doesn’t taste “coconutty” and blend it with the very best butter. Still yummy. Many “pastured” cows are still fed “silage” which can be shredded corn stalks, and grain waste in winter. One fact that shocked me is that “grass fed” in the US can still be 40% grain fed. Because I’m allergic to corn I get mine from a corn free farm in Florida: Circle C Farm and they ship pretty cheap. The beef, pork, and chicken are all corn free and tastes AMAZING.

On another Chanel, an MD, indicated that the butter from grass fed cows has a higher ratio of Omega 3’s whereas the “normal” butter has more Omega 6 fatty acids. I bought Kerrygold when I was visiting the US last year. I didn’t find it any better than the Canadian premium butter (Thornloe, Emerald, Churn 84, or Petite Rivière) to name a few. I don’t know if Churn 84 is grass fed but I’m pretty sure the others I mentioned are. Furthermore: you think $6/lb is expensive!? That’s the normal price for the poor grade stuff at a grocery store here. And BTW: that New Zealand butter is (now wait for it): a whopping $28+/lb here!! And once again (taste wise) not any better. Next point: wouldn’t all ghee be “lactose free”? Ghee is simply pure butter fat. The milk sugars make up the bulk of those caramelized bits at the bottom of the pot when you make ghee. That, and the salt, and a few milk “solids” of course. I’m not a “butter expert” but I use an awful lot of it everywhere from in coffee forward. No toast though: I’m strictly ketovore.

We just get the Kirkland butter but have had Kerrygold before...will switch to Kerrygold, thanks to this video.

I think the key to having good grass fed beef is the genetics, wagyu for instance has a specific gene that’s responsible for making all the 300% or so more Mono unsaturated fats that wagyu has compared to something like angus, better selective breading programs could make high intramuscular fat grass fed beef a real possibility

@@AwareHouseChef I’m totally with you on the grass fed thing, I worded that kind of weird, I would take grass fed over grain fed almost every time, what I mean to say is that I think you can still get that good fatty flavor with a grass fed beef with good genetics over a grain fed with genetics not geared towards high bms, you get the good flavors and health benefits of the grass fed + the bms and health benefits from the genetics

Lots of great information in the video George AND in the viewer comments (I am going to try and get Amish butter and may look for 'Amul' at a specialty store). Not to start a debate, but lately I have been reading a lot about cows and their impact on greenhouse gas emissions. Based on your video, I am guessing that 'grass-fed' cows are fewer and more spread out than their 'corn-fed' counterparts so choosing butter made from grass-fed cows is a small step towards being more environmentally conscious (short of giving up beef and butter totally)?

Hey mike! Thanks for reaching out. I am not sure if a corn based diet causes more methane production in cows I believe that's the reason why there is a greenhouse emissions issue with cows. However, when they eat grass you're not using petroleum based fossil fuels to create fertilizers for the corn that they need

We’ve been using Kerry gold for years now, and love it. But one complaint - it tends to sizzle and pop too much. Anything we can do to change that?

When you’re cooking it? That’s because the moisture from the cream is evaporating too quickly. It takes more time but bring up to a higher heat slower or clarify it by melting it and use the fat only. Let me know how it works out

I used to make butter from 100% pasture raised and finished AA cattle, but since we moved I haven't found a new farmer for milk. Now, I am looking to buy goats. I don't know that goats are good for butter, but the milk is really good. I used Kerry Gold for years; but when I found out Land O' Lakes bought them out, I lost my interest.

I went to college in Wisconsin from 1979-83, and it was still illegal to serve margarine in restaurants. Fun fact: In the early 1900s margarine was sold in stores dyed PINK so consumers would know it wasn’t real butter!

I've always found it amazing that every chef, nutritionist, dietician, etc push natural foods then the producers jack the price up so high that the average consumer can't afford it on a regular ongoing basis even though it is so much better for you. Add a couple of kids with healthy appetites in the mix, and we're done. Sixteen dollars for a pound of butter? No, thanks.

I realize the economics. That is why I feel the kerrygold butter offers the best value. It is more expensive than traditional butter but also far healthier. I wasn't a big fan off the more expensive butters anyway. Cheers.

Kerrygold butter is so soft, it's annoying. I often wonder how, of all the butters on the market, the Kerrygold is the softest. Do they add an oil? In fact, it becomes so soft if left out in summer, that it becomes liquid and I am reminded of the fable of little black Sambo and the tiger that melted down to butter which he took home to his mum from which she made pancakes. Now THIS is a rare butter. If fact, I think it is no longer available. Probably gone extinct, like some of the tigers.
