Cow Ghee? Animal Ghee? Butter Ghee?

[soupyspoon]

Ive found a recipe for a cake where the author is specific about the need for 'animal ghee' and says do NOT use butter or vegetable ghee

What is animal ghee?

Ive found cow ghee on Amazon but I am presuming that cow ghee is made from cows milk, aka butter? Is this butter ghee?

What other sort of butter ghee is there if not from an animal?

(Im not going to use ghee anyway, its expensive, Im just interested in the differences)

Eh, ghee is clarified butter. From cows. I am also confused.

This is what she says

3- Use the best animal ghee brand you can find for a flavorsome namoura, and please avoid butter or vegetable ghee. It won't work here. The best ghee brands, after much testing, are the cow brand (al bakara al haloub) or al Assel.

Animal ghee is ghee (clarified butter) made from animals milk such as cow’s milk or buffalo’s.

The recipe is telling you not to substitute normal, animal ghee with either butter (ie standard butter) or with vegetable ghee (veggie version of ghee)

Doh!!

Comprehension fail

I thought she was saying dont use butter (ghee) or vegetable ghee

Ok, nothing to see here, move along!!
