Sunflower oil is a popular shallow frying oil for many types of foods. Add some to soups and vegetables as they are served or use it as a base for your own salad dressing. Popular in the treatment of Asthma and also as a bread making ingredient. (Frothing may occur in deep fryer).
Sunflower oil naturally contains vitamins A, B, D and E and is high in monounsaturated oleic fatty acids. Used widely as a bread making ingredient and salad oil.
Due to sunflower oils ability not to cloud, use as a marinade base for cheese such as fetta is common. Being very stable and protected against oxidation, use in snack foods and dips is suited. Unrefined cold pressed oil, such as this, can taste slightly bitter on occasions. This is caused by a migration of waxes from the seed hulls.
