Zomi or cooking palm oil is made by boiling ripened and already harvested in a large pan for about 40 minutes until softened and tender.
The cooked palm nut fruits are scooped into a large mortar and gently crushed with a pestle, to avoid damaging the nut, but only to squeeze out the juice on the covering pulp. Once this is done, the juice obtained is filtered to remove ash and then boiled again. At this stage, fresh oil is seen floating on the contents of the jar which is scooped into yet another jar.
Fresh oil from palm fruit is traditionally used when eating roasted yam or plantain.
Cooking palm fruit oil remains the greatest source of tocotrienols – a form of vitamin E known to man. This helps protect the body from diseases such as cancer, blood disorders and helps maintain good skin and fertility.
It is also very rich in the form of vitamin A which helps ensure good vision and prevent night blindness and many other types of eye problems
