Behind the creation of BB's Oil
Jeans Story
You can imagine how many times I’ve been asked, “What’s in your oil” Or, “how did you make your BB’S Oil?” Well, the first is easy – the ingredients are advertised. As to the second, I’d never made oil before, but I was going to learn from the best oil producers in the Cook Islands.
There I was, excited and ready to make coconut oil when my aunt advised me to make my own type of oil and leave the Akari Pi to the mamas on the island. This was the best advice I received and am forever grateful. I was also told when researching medicinal plants that the recipe for Akari Pi originated from another aunt – so making Akari Pi was definitely out for me.
Mauke is also known as the food basket of the Cook Islands so discovering moringa growing prolifically was such a bonus. Moringa Oleifera is also known as the “Tree of Life”. It’s full of 92 vitamins, minerals and antioxidants – so much goodness packed into the entire tree from the roots to the tips of the leaves. I love it. Powered or fresh, its in my food and drinks.
You may also want to take into account the type of coconuts used as there are many varieties on the island. Certain ones are medicinal, some are better for drinking and there’s also one variety that’s fizzy and fab with vodka and ice. Saves a ton of money on coke and sprite.
Everyone who’s made coconut oil has a method. Whether you're cooking, fermenting or cold press, the end product may look the same and the quality varies. Changes can also occur if the ingredients and their weight differ.
Unlike a Favorite family chocolate cake – we can all use the same recipe and the same ingredients, but we each have that individual touch that adds a special uniqueness to the end product.
With all that said, I've tested many varieties of coconuts and its oil; and in my opinion, the proof is in the pudding. Handmade and your own special uniqueness. That's the secret.
