| |  | Special Interests | Home » » » Certified Organic, Coconut Oil, Expeller Pressed, 1 Gallon | | | | | | | Description: | | Wilderness Family Naturals offers a high quality certified organicExpeller-Pressed Coconut Oil as an economical choice for high temperature cooking. This oil is mechanically expressed without the use of solvents or chemicals of any kind. It is an excellent quality food-grade coconut oil that is NOT hydrogenated and contains NO trans fatty acids. Expeller-pressed coconut oil has a neutral flavor (because it is semi-refined), yet it contains the same healthy fatty acids as virgin coconut oil.
This certified organic Expeller Pressed Coconut Oil is less expensive than virgin coconut oil because it can be mass produced. The coconuts are opened and quickly dried. The dried coconuts are then mechanically pressed to remove the oil, without using chemical solvents. Any free fatty acids are removed, the oil is run through diatomaceous earth, and lastly, the oil is steam distilled. This yields a very pure, uncontaminated coconut oil.
Though not a virgin oil, it still melts at 76 ° F, is very light and creamy smooth, containing the same medium chain fatty acids as virgin coconut oil. People in Southeast Asian countries, such as the Philippines, use this as their main cooking oil.
Virgin coconut oil is creamy white as a solid and water-clear as a liquid. Unlike virgin coconut oil, this expeller pressed coconut oil is an off-white to light tan color as a solid, and a light brown color when a liquid. | | | Features: | |

This cooking oil tastes great!Jan 27, 2010 In wanting to enjoy the health benefits of coconut oil, we were growing tired of every baked item tasting like coconut and not having another healthy fat to cook in, other than butter (I have not been excited about the idea of purchasing lard to render myself!). This expeller-pressed coconut oil is excellent! When I used it for fried rice, my husband said it was the tastiest chicken fried rice he'd ever had. The ONLY downside to this product is that the container is a bit difficult to open, but I just had my husband open it and then we put a quart worth of oil into a mason jar...so, we will only need to open the container 2 or 3 more times within a year or so. This oil is a great value for the money! And I got to use my Amazon gift card from Christmas to purchase it!
great coconut oilDec 06, 2009 I love this oil. It is tasteless and ordorless. I use it in place of veg oil. It is also just luscious for the skin!
Not Sure?Dec 05, 2009 I just got this oil today and tried it out. It's not white like my Aloha Nu. It's more of a creamy color. No taste at all. I'll be using this oil just for cooking. The jury is still out on this oil?!
It's a great alternative!Aug 26, 2009 I use this oil just like the vegetable oil that I used to use. It's great for fried chicken, french fries, etc. I even use it for my beer battered fried vegetables.
love itJun 21, 2009 Creamy consistency. Try adding it to peanut butter and pouring it over ice cream where it will harden. Nirvana!!
