What is in your Desi Ghee?
Kissan has been producing and selling premium and authentic Desi Ghee for over 35 years. Our Desi Ghee is processed and packaged in a facility in Canada using butter purchased and governed by the Canadian Dairy Commission.
Why does Desi Ghee melt?
Warmer temperatures during packaging, transportation or storage can cause ghee to liquefy. However, rest assured that it is still pure Desi Ghee and perfect for use. This is perfectly normal and does not impact the taste of our product. We suggest storing our Ghee in dry, cool area to avoid it melting.
Is Ghee Lactose and Casein Free?
We cannot claim that our ghee is lactose or casein free. Very pure ghee (99 -99.5% pure butter oil) may have trace amounts of casein and lactose remaining after processing. Unless a person is extremely sensitive, it will normally not cause any issues.
Is your Desi Ghee made from grass fed cows?
All our butter is purchased from the Canadian Dairy Commission. There is no distinction on whether the cows were grass or grain fed. Feeding depends entirely on the time of year and country of origin.
Why is Ghee More/Less yellow than last time?
Some butter fluctuations occur due to Cow’s diet at different times of the year grass/grain.
Kissan Desi Ghee is not like the brand I’m used to in India, is your ghee real?
We have been selling ghee for over 35 years, and we would not risk false claims about our product. Different manufacturers may process ghee a little differently. If you are used to another brand of ghee and are new to ours, you will find a difference, but this does not mean it’s not real ghee.
Why does Kissan Coconut Oil not smell like Coconuts?
Kissan Coconut Oil is refined, bleached and deodorized so it can have a wider range of use for people who want to use it for cooking or topically without the constant smell of coconut.
White spots/sediment in bottom of the Kissan Coconut Oil jar?
This is not irregular as coconut oil melts and solidifies in different waves. The white spots are not sediment just un-melted coconut oil.
Why does Kissan Mustard Oil say "external use only?"
All mustard oil sold in Canada must state “for external use only”
