Organic Canola Oil, Refined

Organic Canola Oil Refined and its use in the food industry

The food industry often refers to refined organic canola oil as the "olive oil of the North." From a nutritional standpoint, the fatty acid profile of organic canola oil is even superior to that of organic olive oil.

With its nutty flavor and high unsaturated fatty acid content, organic canola oil refined enriches dishes such as salads, sautéed and steamed vegetables, and baked goods.

Organic canola oil can also be mixed with eggs and dairy products without becoming bitter, making it a popular choice for mayonnaise and marinades.

Refined organic canola oil is suitable for high-temperature cooking, such as frying and deep-frying, due to its high smoke point. 

Refined organic canola oil is obtained from the small, dark brown seeds of rapeseed 00 through cold pressing and refining. The seeds are cleaned and crushed beforehand.

Did you know?

Canola plants probably originated in the eastern Mediterranean. They have been cultivated for centuries for their high oil content. Until the 1970s, rapeseed oil was mainly used in industrial applications due to its high erucic acid content, which was suspected of causing heart disease. With the development of the "00 rapeseed" variety, which has a low erucic acid content, rapeseed has become a vital crop for both humans and animals.
