This is a very interesting blog! I knew about palm oil of course (someone who doesn't may be in a state of constant hibernation for years), but I had never heard anything about palm kernel oil. I am wondering whether it is used at all in common products usually containing palm oil. I may check this out the next time I will visit a supermarket (I am however afraid to know the answer in advance).
Cheers!
It's extracted from the palm kernel it self (inner part), unlike the palm oil which is extracted from the palm kernel flesh(outer part)... The extraction process of palm oil is quite complex, it takes time unlike palm kernel oil which is quite easy as the oil is used to cook a special meal (Eastern part of Nigeria)
There are numerous difference between them which includes the smell and the color even the taste is a bit different. I'll make a post explaining how palm kernel oil is extracted from palm kernel, I'll explain the difference showing the color, the uses of both oil and some physical difference both oil.
I'll try and make another post showing the step by step process of a delicious soup with the palm kernel oil 😃.
I'll definitely tag you so you won't miss the post.
Thanks for the extra pieces of information, that confirm what I found in the meantime. I am definitely looking forward to see the next posts, as I am quite interested in this topic (this is something I didn't know at all).
Cheers!
That's one of the advantage of Hive, we learn new things, new culture, new lifestyle and also earn at the same time..
I'll be going to the local market to get the palm kernel fruit, then in the evening I'll extract the oil from the palm kernel (showing the process and steps) and make the local Banga soup with the palm kernel oil (Eastern part of Nigeria dish).
Thank you so much for your support 🥰
I definitely agree with you. This is why I enjoy the most with the STEMsocial community in particular, and Hive in general.
Thanks for the update on the shopping list. I guess the next blog is coming soon ;)
