Organic Sunflower Oil, High-oleic, and its use in the food industry

 

Our organic sunflower oil has a light yellow to golden color and a mild, neutral taste.

 

Thanks to its mild flavor, high-oleic sunflower oil is widely used in the food industry in products such as mayonnaise, margarine, salad dressings, and baked goods. Sunflower oil is also suitable for salads, marinades, and dishes cooked at low to moderate temperatures.

 

This organic sunflower oil contains a high proportion of monounsaturated fatty acids (oleic acid), which makes it more heat-stable than linoleic sunflower oil.

 

Therefore, cold-pressed sunflower oil with a high oleic acid content can be used for moderate temperatures, although high-temperature applications may require a refined high-oleic sunflower oil.

 

Organic sunflower oil with a high oleic acid content is made from hulled (sometimes ground) seeds that are gently cold-pressed to preserve their natural components, flavor, and nutritional profile.

 

Interesting facts

 

The sunflower (Helianthus annuus) is native to North America and has gradually spread southward. Among the Incas, it held symbolic significance and was revered as a representation of the sun. At the end of the 16th century, it was brought to Europe by Spanish explorers.

 

The sunflower plant grows to a height of one to two meters. Before blooming, its bud tracks the sun from east to west during the day, but once the flower opens, it generally remains facing east.
