Our Unrefined Shea Butter
Unrefined shea is usually removed from the seeds by hand using a time-consuming process. Workers gather the seeds, which are about the size of a walnut, then boil them *- making the shells easier to remove. The boiled seeds dry and then pounded to break open the shells. Any bits of broken shell are removed so that the inner seed can be beaten along with water and then boiled to extract the fat. As the fat cools, it's whipped to make a smooth, usable product. If you purchase raw shea butter, it's unrefined and unfiltered, so flecks of impurities may remain as raw shea butter isn't usually passed through cheesecloth or commercial strainers. Unrefined shea butter may be filtered through cheesecloth, or another means, as long as the quality of the butter isn't affected.
