Paneer Purity Test at Home: Betadine Reveals Adulteration in Minutes!
- •Learn simple, cost-free methods to check paneer purity at home using common household items.
- •Antiseptic liquid Betadine (Povidone Iodine Solution) can detect harmful substances like urea, detergent, and vegetable oil in paneer.
- •To test, drop iodine solution or Betadine on paneer in lukewarm water; blue/black color indicates adulteration.
- •Another method: adulterated paneer dissolves in hot water due to vegetable oil, while pure paneer remains intact.
- •Pure paneer is soft with a milky aroma and crumbles when rubbed; synthetic paneer is rubbery and hard.
Why It Matters: Use Betadine or iodine solution for a quick, accurate home test to ensure your paneer is pure.
