A Brief History of Moroccan Argan Oil Argan oil is a plant oil produced from the kernels of the Argan tree (Argania Spinosa) that is endemic to Morocco. In Morocco, Argan Oil is used to dip bread in at breakfast or to drizzle on couscous or pasta. It is also used for cosmetic purposes. Used by the local Amazigh people of Morocco for its healing properties in reducing the look of scars and rheumatic problems, Argan oil today is one of the hottest beauty products on the market. On the culinary scene, the nutty oil appears on menus in the hippest restaurants around the world. With 30 kilograms of nuts required to produce one kilogram of oil. The region surrounding Essaouira and Agadir is the only place in the world the Argania Spinosa grows. Given its ability to survive the region’s hot climate with temperatures that climb to +50 ºC, the tree produces a fruit that is harvested each spring and cold-pressed to create the oil.
