Terre Exotique Exclusive Argan (Argane) Oil Moroccan Cooperative Production 250 Ml 8.8 Oz Tamanar Argan oil. Extracting this oil is a long and tedious process. The ripe fruit of the argan tree, similar to olives, are manually crushed to separate pulp and pits. The pits are broken into 2 and reveal an almond that once processed and milled and pressed to extract their oil. Origins: this oil comes from the Argan tree, a Moroccan olive tree.

This oil, known for millenia by the Berber tribes for its gastronomic and cosmetic properties, is produced by a female-owned cooperative. Use in cooking: this oil has a nutty flavor and will be a wonderful addition to many dishes. It will refine the flavor of sweet potatoes (especially mashed), will add a new dimension to a salad of oranges and carrots, will go beautifully as a finishing touch for fish, or as a topping on a fresh goat cheese.
