Rapeseed Oil
The rapeseed plant usually blooms in the summer and is famous for its golden-yellow flowers.
Belonging to the cabbage family, its closely related to turnip and mustard.
Its oil known both as rapeseed and canola oil is widely used for cooking, baking, and food processing.
Rapeseed oil is high in unsaturated fats and vitamins E and K. It contains a beneficial ratio of omega*3 to omega*6 fats, which can positively influence heart health
High-heat cooking temperature
Rapeseed oil can be cooked to high temperatures because of its high smoke point, meaning it wont burn until around **0ºF (**4ºC), at which point it will start to smoke. At this temperature, fat molecules begin to break down and create harmful compounds.
Smoke point is an important factor to consider when youre choosing a healthy cooking oil. One factor that determines this is how refined an oil is. The more refined, the higher the smoke point.
Since rapeseed oil is highly refined, meaning that many of its impurities and free fatty acids have been removed, it has a higher smoke point than other oils, such as olive oil.
This makes it ideal for sauting, pan-frying, baking, deep-frying, and other high-heat cooking methods.
Its flavorless and versatile
Rapeseed oil has a very mild flavor, allowing it to be used for a variety of culinary applications. Furthermore, it can be served at room temperature or cooked .
It works well in salad dressings, dips, and baking and can be used for pan-frying or deep-frying without adding any additional flavor to your dish.
Affordable
Rapeseed oil is very affordable and accessible because of its worldwide production.
Depending on where you live, you can usually buy 1 gallon (4 liters) for less than half the price of the same volume of olive oil.
Higher quality oils, such as extra virgin olive oil, cost more due to their more delicate processing techniques and shorter shelf life.
Rapeseed oil is widely used around the world. Its popular for its affordability and versatility as a cooking oil and is commonly found in salad dressings, baked goods, and fried foods.
Its a good source of healthy fats but tends to be highly processed, which may lower its nutritional value and alter its health effects.
When possible, try to select cold-pressed or minimally refined rapeseed oil, both of which retain most of this oils original nutrients and benefits.
