{"product_id":"pure-deodorised-beef-tallow-south-african-tallow","title":"Deodorised Beef Tallow - Pure South African Tallow","description":"\u003cp\u003ePure Deodorised Beef Tallow is carefully rendered beef fat that undergoes an extended, gentle water-washing process to create a cleaner, smoother tallow with a significantly milder aroma and flavour than traditionally rendered tallow. Sourced from grass-fed, free-range, locally raised cattle, it retains the rich, versatile qualities tallow is valued for, while its more neutral sensory profile makes it especially useful where a pronounced beef aroma is not wanted. The tallow is washed five times with clean water before undergoing a sixth, gentle dry render to remove remaining moisture and refine the finished fat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e♡ Why we love it: The extra processing makes a real difference to how versatile this tallow feels in use. Its pale colour, smooth texture and much more neutral aroma make it an excellent choice when you want the useful properties of traditional beef tallow without a noticeable beefy character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Properties\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIngredients: Pure deodorised beef tallow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForm: Rendered solid fat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAppearance: Pale, smooth tallow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAroma: Mild and significantly more neutral than traditionally rendered beef tallow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProcessing: Five gentle water washes followed by a sixth dry render\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolubility: Oil soluble, not water soluble\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry Of Origin: South Africa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat It's Used For\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCooking and frying where a more neutral-tasting animal fat is preferred\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBaking and other recipes that call for beef tallow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaking balms, salves and anhydrous skincare formulations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoap making\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlending with oils, butters and other oil-soluble ingredients\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApplications where traditional tallow's stronger beef aroma would be undesirable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWho It's For\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Product Is For:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHome cooks and makers looking for versatile beef tallow with a milder aroma and flavour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoap and skincare makers working with traditional animal fats\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeople who enjoy using tallow but prefer a more neutral sensory profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormulators looking for a simple, single-ingredient fat for oil-based products\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Product Is Not For:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVegan or vegetarian formulations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWater-based formulations without an appropriate emulsification system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnyone specifically looking for the stronger aroma and flavour of traditionally rendered tallow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow To Use\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAs a Cooking Fat: Melt and use as required for frying, roasting or other suitable recipes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAs a Baking Fat: Use in recipes where beef tallow is suitable, adjusting according to the recipe.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAs a Cosmetic Ingredient: Melt gently and incorporate into balms, salves, body products and other oil-based formulations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAs a Soap-Making Fat: Include as part of the selected fat blend and calculate the required alkali according to your formulation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProcessing Tip: Use gentle heat only as needed to liquefy the tallow and make blending easier.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSafety Instructions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse clean, dry utensils when handling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTake care when heating, as melted fats can cause burns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo not overheat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore securely away from excessive heat and moisture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscontinue topical use if irritation occurs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: What makes this tallow deodorised? \u003cbr\u003eA: The rendered tallow goes through five gentle washes with clean water. Between washes, the water and water-soluble residues are separated from the fat. It then receives a sixth, gentle dry render to remove remaining moisture and further refine the tallow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Is deodorised tallow completely odourless? \u003cbr\u003eA: No. It is still natural beef tallow, but the repeated washing process significantly reduces the stronger beef aroma associated with traditionally rendered tallow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Why is deodorised tallow more expensive than standard tallow? \u003cbr\u003eA: It takes considerably more time, water and handling to produce. The repeated washing, separation and final dry-rendering stages also result in greater product loss during processing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Does deodorising mean fragrance has been added? \u003cbr\u003eA: No added fragrance is used to create the more neutral aroma. The change comes from the repeated water-washing, separation and careful re-rendering process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: What does water washing actually remove? \u003cbr\u003eA: The washing process helps separate water-soluble impurities, proteins and other residues that can contribute to tallow's stronger natural aroma and flavour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Why choose deodorised tallow instead of traditionally rendered tallow? \u003cbr\u003eA: Choose it when you want the versatility and characteristic properties of beef tallow with a cleaner, milder aroma and flavour that is less noticeable in the finished application.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tallow SA \/ McDairy","offers":[{"title":"1L","offer_id":56050445254824,"sku":"EN-20223435","price":289.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true},{"title":"5L","offer_id":56050445287592,"sku":"EN-20223436","price":895.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0081\/3111\/7152\/files\/ProductImageComingSoon.png?v=1776076873","url":"https:\/\/essentiallynatural.co.za\/products\/pure-deodorised-beef-tallow-south-african-tallow","provider":"Essentially Natural","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
