Nutiva Organic Red Palm Oil
Buttery flavor for all your cooking needs!
This organic red palm oil is different and completely unique from the average cooking oil. Although you might not use this everyday, you are going to want this in your kitchen! This is the kind of cooking oil you might not use for every day cooking, but it can really compliment a variety of foods. On the jar it says this red palm oil is great for sautéing, roasting, soups, and popcorn. What makes it so great for a variety of cooking is the rich buttery flavor. The first time I used this red palm oil to cook with I noticed just how much of a buttery flavor it had. After that I knew exactly why it suggested using it for popcorn. So yesterday I used this cooking oil to pop some Bob’s Red Mill Yellow Popcorn. Normally I would use the air popper to make fresh popcorn, but in this case I used a pan with a lid. After the popcorn was ready I also sprinkled Himalayan salt on it and mixed it up. If you want to bring the taste of theater popcorn to your house, this oil can do that! It only takes a tablespoon of this oil to make some really delicious popcorn. Not only does it produce movie theater tasting popcorn, but this is non-GMO, organic, and not hydrogenated. Whatever they use in the theaters to make popcorn is likely not organic and hydrogenated. Not only is it healthier, but my wife said “This is the best popcorn I’ve ever had!”. So that should tell you something about the potential of this cooking oil. This is a medium heat cooking oil with a smoke point of 400 degrees Fahrenheit so consider that too when shopping for cooking oils. So if you want to cook with an oil with a nice buttery flavor or just plain make the best popcorn you’ve ever had, try this!

Make the Best Scrambled Eggs!
If you like eggs, Nutiva Organic Red Palm Oil is for you! Scrambled eggs don’t have to be boring and bland. After hearing about the buttery flavor of this palm oil, I decided to use it for scrambled eggs. I find that it is good to let the pan heat up close to your desired temperature before putting this in. For whatever reason it does start to smoke before it seems like it should. Do not be discouraged though, put it in just before what you are cooking. After the pan heats up I let the red palm oil heat up to where it starts to look wavy which shows that it is hot and ready to use. Then in the eggs go and in very little time they are colored with an almost orange hue. This oil makes the eggs taste so good you don’t have to put any condiments on them. This produces some of the best tasting scrambled eggs! It really does wonders for eggs. A jar of this has a place in every household!

Grill Onions with this!
I Love to have an excuse for grilled onions. Butter always seemed to do well, but this red palm oil works great without having to worry about burning the butter. This provides that nice buttery flavor I’m looking for without having to use any dairy. Just like everything else, butter is going way up in price. This particular type of palm oil seems to do the trick and doesn’t take much either. If you are like me and always end up using way too much butter, try this instead. A little goes a long way!
