DESCRIPTION

Palm Oil (Unhydrogenated) is a deep orange-red fat obtained from the pulp of the fruit of the oil palm Elaeis guineensis Jacq. (Fam. Aracaceae) usually by boiling, centrifugation, and mechanical expression. It is refined, bleached, and deodorized to substantially remove free fatty acids, phospholipids, color, odor and flavor components, and miscellaneous other non-oil materials. It is a semisolid at 21° to 27°.
