dried ground rosebuds.
ARGAN OIL
ARGAN OIL comes from the nuts of the Argan tree (Argania spinosa).
This tree is unknown for many people since it grows only in the South Western part of Morocco in an area covering 700,000-800,000 hectares.
The argan tree produces nuts from which is extracted a very nutritious oil.
The remaining is used to feed the cattle and nuts shells for heating. Nothing is lost. For centuries, Berber women of this region have produced argan oil, which was used for their consumption and traditional Moroccan medicine.
