A lot of ghee manufacturers in the market replace or mix pure ghee with Vanaspati oil which is very cheap. Few manufacturers mix vegetable oils and other greasy elements in ghee to reduce the price of ghee and hence sell ghee at cheaper prices.

Place spoonful ghee on your palm. If the ghee starts to melt itself, it is pure since pure ghee melts at body temperature.
Method 2: Check the Colour of Ghee
