Organic Cold-Pressed Rape-Seed Oil Home Field rape-seed oil is grown and cold pressed in Finland's clean arctic environment out of selected rape seeds that have been cultivated without chemical fertilizers or pesticides. Organic farming and its official inspection system are the best guarantees for keeping the environment and the product clean and free of remnants of pesticides.
Cold pressing yields natural oil with a fatty acid composition that has been found ideal in many studies. Rape-seed oil has a positive effect on metabolism because of its high content of vitamin E and its ability to decrease the amount of cholesterol in blood.
Rape-seed oil has a soft and slightly nutty aroma. It is suitable for all types of cooking: for salad dressings, light sandwich spreads, for frying meat and doughnuts, and for baking. A spoonful of rape-seed oil every morning and evening is the best way to get a day's dosage of essential fatty acids and vitamin E.
Cold-pressed oil is more sensitive to oxidation because of its wide range of fatty acids compared with an industrially produced, ordinary food oil. Therefore, it should preferably be stored in a cold and dark place, such as a fridge or cooler.
