By combining the naturally rich and creamy milk of our Murrah and Pandharpuri buffaloes with the ancient bilona method, we create a ghee that is unmatched in richness, flavour, and nutritional value. Every jar of our buffalo bilona ghee is a celebration of the patience, skill, and dedication that traditional ghee-making demands.
The Art of Making Buffalo Bilona Ghee
Making buffalo bilona ghee is an art that requires patience and precision. At Amrutam Dairy, we follow each step of the bilona process with meticulous care:
- Fresh Buffalo Milk - We collect rich, creamy milk from our healthy buffaloes every morning. The buffaloes are fed nutritious fodder and raised in a clean, stress-free environment.
- Curd Setting - The milk is boiled and cooled to the perfect temperature before adding natural curd culture. The curd is set overnight in traditional vessels, allowing it to develop a thick, creamy consistency.
- Hand Churning - The next morning, the dense buffalo curd is hand-churned using a wooden bilona. This slow, rhythmic churning separates the rich makkhan from the buttermilk.
- Slow Cooking - The collected makkhan is placed in a heavy-bottomed vessel and slow-cooked on a gentle flame. The butter gradually melts, simmers, and transforms into deep golden buffalo bilona ghee with a bold, satisfying aroma.
- Filtration and Packing - The ghee is carefully filtered and packed in airtight containers to preserve its freshness, flavour, and nutritional integrity.
What Sets Buffalo Bilona Ghee Apart
Buffalo bilona ghee stands apart from regular ghee in several important ways. The bilona method uses whole curd rather than just cream, which means the ghee retains a wider range of nutrients from the milk. Buffalo milk itself is naturally richer in fat, calcium, and protein compared to cow milk, making buffalo bilona ghee an exceptionally nourishing food. The slow-cooking process produces a ghee with a deeper colour, denser texture, and bolder flavour than any machine-made ghee can achieve.
