Organic cold-pressed sunflower oil is a healthy cooking oil with a mild nutty aroma. Pure and unrefined, it is best used for grilling and deep frying.
Sunflower oil is a versatile ingredient, and its delicate flavour makes it a true pantry essential. Its high smoke-point is perfect for grilling and deep frying, while you can also use it in salad dressings or to create a delicious honey-mustard marinade for chicken.
Sunflower seeds are naturally rich in antioxidants, Vitamin E and beta-carotene, which can protect your skin from premature ageing. An excellent source of unsaturated fats, the benefits of regular consumption include easing the symptoms of arthritis and it may also lower cholesterol. Sunflower oil can reduce skin dryness, help with premature ageing and strengthen hair when applied externally.
The oil comes in a recyclable glass bottle.

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."
