Ghee is clarified butter. You can make it at home or pick up a jar. The solids are removed from the butter, eliminating LDLs, or "bad" cholesterol. Clarified butter can be used to cook at higher temperatures than non-clarified butter. Also, practitioners of Ayurvedic medicine believe ghee has healing powers.
