Organic cold-pressed sunflower oil is a healthy oil with a mild nutty aroma. Pure and unrefined, it is one of the best choices for cooking and deep frying.
How can I use it?
Sunflower oil is a versatile ingredient, and its delicate flavour makes it a true pantry essential, recognised by the Great Taste Awards as one of the best in its class. Its high smoke point makes it a great alternative to olive oil when cooking at high heat. Use it for grilling and deep frying, perfect for making chips or roast potatoes. Its delicious aroma makes a great addition to salad dressings, or use it to create a moreish honey-mustard marinade for chicken.
Sunflower oil is safe for dogs to eat in moderation, providing healthy fats to their diet, which may promote a stronger, shinier coat. It can also be used to supplement horse feed for additional calories and a boost of energy.
Health Benefits
Sunflower seeds are naturally rich in antioxidants, Vitamin E and beta-carotene, which can protect your skin from premature ageing. When applied externally, the pure oil can also help reduce dryness and skin cracking, while providing hydration for dull, frizzy hair, making it softer with a lovely sheen. Naturally free from cholesterol and an excellent source of unsaturated fats, the benefits of regular consumption may include improved cardiovascular health, easing the symptoms of arthritis and reducing the levels of HDL, also known as bad cholesterol.
Unrefined organic sunflower oil is a great replacement for vegetable oils, which are typically highly processed and use a combination of inflammatory ingredients, including canola and soybeans.
How is it made?
The finest, locally sourced, and certified organic raw seeds are carefully selected and gently cold-pressed, ensuring they retain their natural goodness. An innovative and environmentally friendly ‘zero waste’ technology is used to create this silky-smooth oil, which comes in a recyclable glass bottle, while also resulting in a creamy seed butter and finely milled sunflower flour, ensuring that nothing is discarded. These versatile pantry essentials are full of flavour and high in nutritional value, while also being good for the planet.
Award Winner
The organic sunflower oil received 2* at the 2019 and 2020 Great Taste Awards.
Comments from the Great Taste Judges:
"Pleasantly coloured oil, golden and inviting. The flavour develops into a fresh nuttiness, and we warm to it as it lingers on the palate - there is a very appealing seed character. It has toasty notes, even though the seeds are pressed raw. The length is worth a mention - it carried on delivering after the initial character was tasted. We would happily use this on its own as a finishing oil, not just mixed into dressings. Really delicious and a great example."
