Malaysia is touting palm as better aligned with modern healthy living trends.
Malaysia is seeking to expand its palm oil market in China by offering a plant-based alternative for use in mala hotpot, a popular spicy dish that’s cooked with raw meats and vegetables in a simmering pot.
The world’s second-largest palm oil producer is working with Chinese researchers to develop a substitute to traditional tallow, a rendered animal fat mainly derived from beef and commonly used for frying and baking.
