USDA Certified Organic Grass Fed Ghee with Himalayan Salt, 12oz, Carrington Farms

The ghee itself is good. It tastes nice and is fantastic for use with phyllo dough pastries and buttery flavor in high temp frying.
A little goes a long way, it spreads thinner and easier than melted butter.
The container though is a problem. You will want to transfer it to another container. The product does not get refrigerated and is a thick oily liquid. But the lid provided is loose fitting, it just clicks on like a hummus or yogurt lid. If you bump the container it will slosh and leak out, heaven forbid you knock it all the way over!

The plastic case of the butter broke and the butter leaked out. The butter plastic case broke and the butter flowed out. Because of the butter that leaked out, other products in the box were also covered in butter, which was very unpleasant. I want to replace it with a new product. What should I do?

Ghee good, this brand, not so good! … Although Ghee is great for cooking over high heat versus cooking oils or butter, I never got to actually use this brand. … They come in small plastic containers, like with spread butter, except poorly sealed. They were thrown into an oversized box with other supplies, neither wrapped securely nor boxed within a smaller box, left free to bounce around during shipping, and arrived in a liquified state with broken seals and leaking on everything. … Completely unacceptable for a food product! … And when attempting to request refund or return online, it stated this product was not eligible for return. I then spent almost an hour attempting to reach someone for redress. … This is very concerning for a food based product as stored and shipped by Amazon and I cannot recomend ordering this product online!

[Update below] I haven’t a basis of comparison, haven’t purchased a blend like this before, but I hoped for a pronounced buttery taste. I could just barely detect a butter flavor. I wanted to use it in place of butter on oatmeal and grits, in particular. Didn’t work for me, when I added enough to be able to taste they were too oily. I like ghee, it’s lighter and more flavorful- I think the proportion of ghee in this must be relatively small.

Update: I added a star because I found I DO like it in dishes for which a little oil is customary, like pork-fried rice and stir-frys (and unlike porridge, rice and veggies don’t absorb this blend, so you CAN taste the ghee, and a little goes a long way). I’m on a new low-fat vegetarian diet (experimenting) and made a version with brown rice, Soy TVP chunks (Barry Farms, so good) and a few peas. I didn’t actually fry it, I added a tiny amount of this on the plate (not even a teaspoonful). I sprinkled with chives and a little onion salt, and it was very close to our family recipe, a favorite. So I’ve revised my opinion- I’m sure there will be other good uses too- (on popcorn?). I also like the packaging, it doesn’t leak, and the fact that no refrigeration is required is nice for camping.

It’s so good that it could be addicting
