Pure vanaspati melts smoothly, while fake ghee may feel waxy or leave excessive grease.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hot Water Test:<\/strong> Drop a spoonful into warm water. Authentic vanaspati melts and floats evenly. Adulterated ghee may sink, form lumps, or cloud the water.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Transparency Test:<\/strong> Fully melted genuine vanaspati becomes clear.
