Coconut oil, Cocoxim, 500 ml, VCO01.01.05

Coconut oil from Cocoxim (0.5l), obtained from natural coconut fruits by centrifugation. Coconut oil is valued for its pleasant aroma, high smoke point and ability to add a delicate tropical flavor to dishes. The oil is ideal for frying pancakes, baking buns, meat, fish and vegetable dishes. The smoke point of about 175°C prevents it from burning quickly and forming harmful substances. It is also added to pastries, cereals, soups and sauces to give a pleasant aroma, to enrich the taste and nutritional value. Coconut oil can replace other fats in use. It can be used as a direct replacement for butter or margarine in many recipes, especially for making cookies, muffins and other desserts, adding a light coconut note to them.
Unrefined coconut oil maintains a quality with a high content of medium-chain triglycerides, which is good for consumption. It can solidify at temperatures below 25 degrees. It is more sensitive to saponification, as its basis is lauric acid, the free form of which has a characteristic soapy taste. In addition, this oil retains natural enzymes and microparticles of coconut pulp, which increase the risk of hydrolysis and the appearance of a soapy aftertaste. Therefore, store it hermetically, in a cool, dark place, away from moisture and air.
