What are plantains?

Plantains are one of the most common ingredients for food in Latin-America and Africa, and are often confused with bananas. Although they are similar, Plantains are larger, and must be fully cooked. Plantains can be salty, or if left to ripen, naturally sweet. Did you know that they are actually a fruit?

Why use Non - Hydrogenated Palm Oil?

Palm oil is actually the most efficient vegetable oil humans can harvest. Palm trees can produce 4-10 times more oil than other crops per unit of land. Unlike other highly refined vegetable oils, palm oil is great for cooking, as its fatty acid structure makes it extremely stable at high temperatures. Its smooth taste and absence of smell make it the perfect ingredient for many recipes and palm oil has a natural preservative effect, which helps extend the shelf life of food products.
