Coconut butter VS coconut oil?

[noodle-o]

Anyone know the difference between coconut butter and coconut oil?

[rawkchicster]

same exact thing, RFRW refers to it as butter, because it's solid at room temperature. As long as it's cold-pressed extra virgin, it's raw :)

I seem to remember reading that coconut oil is the pure oil (although solid at room temp) and coconut butter is the oil blended with the meat... I could be wrong though, and I've seen it referred to as coconut oil-butter so who knows!

you're right, subbacultcha... just found this link:

Interesting, of course the people at the health food store wouldn't know.. they're the ones that told me!! :eek: Now, I'm going to have to try all of sarma's recipes the RIGHT way.... with the butter instead. (although i can't imagine them being better than they already are!!)

Lady Green Jeans - when do use the coconut oil and when do you use the butter? I was not sure what to use each one for (I did order both from Alissa's store and am waiting for them to arrive).
