Brazilian Palm Oil
Red Palm OilDendê Oil is a thick, dark, reddish-orange, strong-flavoured oil extracted from the pulp of a fruit from a type of palm tree grown in Africa and in Brazil.
It is used in cooking in West Africa and in Brazil, particularly in Bahia.
African versions are much heavier than Brazilian versions.
It has a flavour that is vital in West African and Brazilian dishes.
It is not the same as palm kernel oil.
The word "Dendê" comes from the "African oil palm" (scientific name: Elaeis guineensis, Jacq) that Brazilians call "dendê."
