FAQs

What use RBD coconut oil for cooking?

RBD coconut oil is regarded as the best for cooking by many around the world for several reasons. First one being, the oil having a very high smoke point of around 450 Celsius, so no matter how heated your oil pan is, it wont be a problem for the oil to withstand. Second, it has absolutely no odour as the deodorization part of refining process removes all the odor particles, so that your food cooked with coconut oil won’t have any foreign taste that you wont like. Lastly and most importantly, RBD coconut oil is rich in MCFA or Medium Chained Fatty Acids, unlike other famous cooking oils. MCFA is easily digested and does not create any uneasiness in your stomach after a meal, whereas it may be the opposite with oils with longer chain fatty acids like Olive, Palm and Sunflower.

What is physical refining?

There are two methods used to refine edible oil, chemical method and physical method. The main contrast between the processes is that chemical refining uses NaOH (Caustic Soda) to remove free fatty acids in oil, while physical refining uses a distillation method (with high temperatures under vacuum) to neutralise oil. Physical refining increases the yield of neutral oil without any chemical use and more importantly, it is considered as the environmentally sustainable method. We at SMR practices physical refining of oil.
