Organic Coconut Oil Naturland Fair

Coconut oil Naturland Fair from Ölmühle Solling

Coconut oil is one of the most popular and versatile products obtained from the coconut and enriches both cold and hot cuisine. But not every coconut oil has the same properties, the same history or even the same quality as the other. In other words, not all coconut oil is the same! To meet even the highest culinary and ethical standards, many things must come together. The Naturland Fair coconut oil from Ölmühle Solling meets these requirements 100 percent. It is a virgin oil, which is obtained from the whole coconut and is neither refined, nor hardened, bleached or treated with fragrances. With this coconut oil, exotic cooking is so much fun!

The raw material for this absolute premium product comes from Sri Lanka, where it is produced under fair conditions - which is why it is also the only coconut oil with the association certification "Naturland Fair" so far. Coconut oil is vegan and lactose-free and therefore suitable for every taste and every need. A special highlight of this coconut oil: because it is obtained from the whole nut (so it can be called "whole kernel oil"), it has a slightly yellowish color, unlike conventional oils. This is because, during the production of the oil from the freshly harvested coconut, the thin brown, nutrient-rich seed skin is also pressed along with the fruit flesh, which ensures a more coconut-typical, authentic taste that will also convince you!

What makes the Naturland Fair coconut oil stand out

Organic farming
Ölmühle Solling obtains this coconut oil from the Serendipol project in Sri Lanka, which is certified with the "Naturland Fair Seal". This ensures that the coconuts used come from recognized organic, sustainable organic cultivation.

Fairtrade
Another important aspect of this certification: products that bear the seal are demonstrably and recognized as fair trade. Among the sustainability seals, Naturland Fair sets the highest standards - even Stiftung Warentest has confirmed this.

Pure enjoyment
The special production processes, the naturalness of the oil, and the ideal climate ensure coconut enjoyment in its purest form: Virgin organic coconut oil with valuable ingredients and culinary versatility.

 

Quality, origin, production method - all these factors play a role in determining the true value of a food product. Especially vegetable oils from exotic raw materials are often viewed particularly critically. Thanks to the close cooperation of Ölmühle Solling with the locally active agricultural project Serendipol, this Naturland Fair certified organic coconut oil is both ecologically sustainable and fair trade (and thus fair production). Who enjoys this coconut oil from Sri Lanka, enjoys with a clear conscience!

What is the power of coconut oil? And what can you do with it?

      Very special qualities
By nature, coconuts provide numerous high-quality micro- and macronutrients. In addition to protein, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals, of course, fats - coconut oil. This vegetable oil is characterized by its high content of the so-called MCT oils, the medium-chain fatty acids. MCTs (medium-chained triglycerides) include lauric acid, which makes up almost half of the fatty acids in coconut oil.

Culinary versatile
Coconut oil has a very fine aroma of fresh coconut, which is on the one hand very characteristic, on the other hand very subtle. Coconut oil is very heat-stable and therefore perfect for hot cooking (for example, as a frying fat for the wok) as well as ideal for baking - no undesirable trans fatty acids are formed. Thanks to the subtle aroma, it is versatile: optimal for both meat and vegetarian dishes!

 

What makes an oil "virgin"?

Virgin vegetable oils are characterized by their particular naturalness, that is, ultimately by the degree to which they have been processed (or NOT PROCESSED). Virgin oils are guaranteed to be cold-pressed (i.e., produced absolutely without the addition of any heat). There is no treatment of the raw material, in this case the copra (coconut meat) or the finished product. And this clearly has a positive effect on the quality and taste of vegetable oils. This coconut oil from Sri Lanka also impresses with its naturalness and organic quality. Convince yourself!

 

Fairtrade - fair product

Ölmühle Solling has been working closely with the locally active company Serendipol since 2006. The focus of Serendipol is on the cooperation with small farms, which it advises and supports in the ecological management of coconut farms. This promotes sustainable agriculture on the one hand and fair trade with local producers on the other. More than 1,300 small farmers in Sri Lanka are now organized in the project - the total area under cultivation is over 8,000 hectares. 

 A real success project for a real top product!
