Dalda is a brand of vegetable oil, specifically hydrogenated vegetable cooking oil, that is popular in South Asia. It is an alternative to traditional ghee that is made from milk, and is often used as a substitute for ghee in cooking, as well as in the production of bakery products, sweets, and snack items. Dalda is primarily made from palm oil, which is hydrogenated to harden the soft oils used in its making. Unlike traditional ghee, Dalda contains trans fat, which is produced during the process of hydrogenation and is not safe or healthy for consumption. The fats found in Dalda ghee can cause insulin resistance in the body, leading to the risk of type 2 diabetes. In conclusion, Dalda is a brand of hydrogenated vegetable cooking oil that is not considered healthy due to its high trans fat content.
