Panch Sanskars: how the ghee is made

Pratapgarh Pure starts as milk and becomes ghee in five sanskars. The milk is boiled. It is curdled. The curd is churned in a wooden bilona. The makkhan is separated and lifted out. Then it is simmered slowly, until all that is left is ghee.

Bilona Panch Sanskar

Pratapgarh Pure Ghee is made in 5 steps following the centuries old Vedic process.

01

Boiling

A low flame. A slow boil. Just gentle heat, taking its time to bring out a richer, deeper flavour.

02

Curdling

A spoonful of our own curd starts it. For hours, left undisturbed to set slowly and naturally into a curd that is thick, creamy and full of nutrition.

Churning

The wooden bilona turns, slowly and steadily. You can hear the gentle slosh of buttermilk, as the butter starts to gather.

Separating

The butter is gathered gently. And the buttermilk is saved to be served to our guests. Because here, nothing good goes to waste.

Heating

The butter is simmered gently. Until it turns clear, golden and fragrant — with that warm, nutty aroma you know before you taste it. That's when it becomes ghee.


Testing

Two labs, and the milk goes to the first one

The milk is tested on thirteen parameters in the farm's own lab before production begins. The finished ghee goes to a third-party lab, and that report is published in full, for you to read before you buy.

The people

The women who make it

The ghee is made by a team of women from the villages around the farm, working with supervisors who served in the army. They work by hand, in small batches, and the rhythm of it is the same every morning.
