Coconut Oil – Organic

Product Description



Organic Coconut Oil Virgin – Honest to Goodness – 1L


Organic virgin coconut oil is very heat stable so it makes an excellent cooking and frying oil. It has a subtle coconut aroma and adds a very mild pleasant hint of coconut taste to the food. Because of the natural stability of coconut oils it is slow to oxidize and thus resistant to rancidity, lasting up to two years.

Because coconut oil is high in natural anti-oxidants, it is not necessary to refrigerate it. Simply keep it in the pantry cupboard.



How to use:

Cooking with Coconut Oil…
Organic Coconut oil is easy to use, substitute for other oils and fats in baking, melt in a pan for frying, or brush over your meats and vegetables for roasted! It is a white, semi-solid oil. It has a subtle coconut aroma and adds a very mild pleasant hint of coconut taste to the food. The warmer it is the more liquid it becomes. If the climate is cooler and a liquid oil is preferred, simply heat the coconut oil in a bowl within a bowl of hot water – it will melt quickly

This Sri Lankan organic coconut oil has about 55-57% Lauric Acid content. This is high compared to many other coconut oils which only have around 50%. Our coconut oil is made from the pure white coconut flesh which uses a cold press expeller process (low temperature extraction) to produce this fine oil. Many of the cheaper oils are produced from both the white flesh and the internal brown skin (testa), producing a higher yield and lower quality oil with that lower Lauric Acid content.

What is Single Origin Coconut Oil?
Single Origin Coconut Oil means unblended coconut oil originating from a particular region with its own unique flavour profile. Similar to wine, single origin coconut oil is shaped by tree variety, soil type and altitude. Coconut oils vary in taste from region to region. This is due to the “terroir” or soil composition, weather patterns, altitude and many subtle variables which influence the coconut it comes from.

This organic virgin coconut oil is a genuine single origin coconut oil, and the benefits show. Most other Virgin Coconut Oils (VCO) are blended with oils sourced from several different regions or even countries. This is mainly due to VCO suppliers sourcing the best possible price for bulk VCO – wherever that takes them. However this organic coconut oil is sourced solely from Sri Lanka.
