100% Unrefined Organic Virgin Coconut Oil
Made from fresh organically grown coconuts (not dried copra). The entire production process for the oil, from palm to plate, takes just a few hours. Fresh coconuts are collected from organically certified farmers and the coconut flesh is removed using graters. The flesh is dried by turning it on large wood-fired ovens for three hours, before it’s pressed hydraulically to extract the oil. Impurities are removed and buckets of oil are filtered to create Heilala Coconut Oil. This cold pressed method results in a pure and natural, non-hydrogenated, organic, unrefined and highly stable coconut oil. Heilala Virgin Coconut Oil is unbleached and so some natural discoloration is normal. It is non-deodorized so it has a lovely coconut aroma! Heilala Pure Virgin Coconut Oil is organically grown and processed in partnership with the Tonga National Youth Congress (TNYC) and Oxfam NZ. Heilala Virgin Coconut oil includes several compounds that are good for your health, including caprylic acid, capric acid, and lauric acid. Virgin coconut oil contains medium-chain fatty acids which are much easier on the body than the long chain fatty acids found in many other cooking oils. Use as a dairy-free alternative to butter, for baking, roasting and stir-fries. Smoothies, Paleo coffee and raw treats.
