It also helps to improve absorption and increase the life energy force. It aids in digestion because of its light flavor. Ghee is said to be the ‘ideal cooking oil’ because of its many healing properties. On the other hand, oil consists of trans fats and a low smoke point, which helps it burn easily at low temperature.

Another difference is that ghee is salt free, lactose free and does not burn easily at high temperatures. In flavoring a dish, ghee can used because of its delicious buttery taste, whereas the flavor of oil depends on the fruit or vegetable which it is extracted from, but generally, it is tasteless. But, based on their flavor and nutrients, ghee is considered a healthier option than oil. Though, in an Indian kitchen everything from chapattis, curries and dals is laced up in ghee, while oil is a widely used ingredient in salads, pastas and other baked dishes in the West. In terms of cooking, oil and ghee are widely used as condiments, spread or added to food to zing up the flavor.
Then, it undergoes refinement to alter the appearance, texture, smell and taste. First, it is extracted from a seed, nut or a fruit. This cooking oil is mainly produced in two separate processes. Oil is widely used for cooking, baking and frying, etc. It is made from plant, animal or synthetic fat. Oil, on the other hand, is defined as any neutral, non-polar chemical substance, which is a viscous liquid at ambient temperatures. The oil turns into a pale yellow which is then strained and stored as ghee. It releases a froth, which is then strained out and discarded. Traditionally, ghee is made by heating butter on a slow pan, which is then stirred slowly until the oil separates from the butter. The term ‘ghee’ is defined as type of clarified butter, and is prepared from cow’s milk. So, why is it that people are gushing and going crazy about the liquid gold ‘ghee’ and forgetting about the golden ‘oil’? Let’s find out. Both, oil and ghee are used to enhance the flavor of a dish. In South Asian and Middle Eastern countries, a meal without ‘ghee’ is considered incomplete, whereas the same meal is considered tasteless, if not cooked in oil and mouth watering spices. The difference between the two food items is based on their ingredients, method of preparation and uses. Key difference: Ghee is a type of clarified butter, whereas oil is a viscous, neutral and non-polar chemical substance.
