Checking ghee purity at home can be done through simple tests, although lab testing is the most accurate method.
At-Home Ghee Purity Tests
Here are some common methods to check the purity of ghee at home:
- Hydrochloric Acid (HCL) Test:
- Add a small amount of hydrochloric acid to the ghee.
- Pure ghee will not change color.
- Adulterated ghee will turn red.
It is important to note that using HCL requires caution and should be done with appropriate safety measures. This method, as described in the reference video, can indicate adulteration, but further testing might be necessary for confirmation.
