FAQs
1. Can Fancy Farmer macadamia oil replace other cooking oils?
It can replace most everyday cooking oils. Thanks to its high smoke point (~210 °C), it works well for frying, stir-frying, roasting, grilling, marinades, dressings, and baking.
2. Why is macadamia oil often pricier?
Macadamia trees take years to mature and cold-pressing yields less oil than hot extraction, helping retain flavor and nutritional quality.
3. Does frying with macadamia oil destroy nutrients?
The high smoke point helps maintain stability at typical cooking temperatures. As with any oil, avoid overheating to reduce degradation.
4. Is it suitable for children and during pregnancy?
It can be part of a balanced diet for most people, including pregnant/breastfeeding women and children from 6 months, provided there are no nut allergies. When in doubt, consult a healthcare professional.
5. How can I spot genuine macadamia oil?
Look for a light golden, clear appearance with a mild nutty aroma, intact labels/QR codes, and purchase from trusted retailers.
