samneh is a ghee that is absolutely essential to every jordanian home. it can be used instead of almost any fat to add richness to your cooking.
for generations, it has been used for making rice and stews, but we also like using it for french toast and eggs. it contains a medley of herbs and spices that are both beneficial for your health, and add layers of flavor and aromatics to your food.

samneh is the arabic word for ghee, which is clarified butter. ghee is a naturally purified version of clarified butter where all detectable water is removed, making it shelf stable. our samneh is jordanian-style and infused with herbs and spices that make it savory and aromatic.
is samneh vegan?
samneh is made from butter, so it’s from an animal source and is not vegan.
how many servings does each jar make?
we currently only carry our small 6oz jar, which has about 12 servings.
does samneh require refrigeration? how long does it last?
samneh is well filtered, making it pure butter fat that doesn’t decompose when temperature is stable. it doesn’t need to be refrigerated and is technically safe for years; however, the chef recommends a 2-year best by date to enjoy it with the flavors remaining intact.
shawarmaji maintains a strong commitment to more responsible sourcing and flavors created with cultural integrity, which means our products contain no preservatives, no artificial flavors, and no high-fructose corn syrup.
