Just Oil: Extra Virgin Rapeseed Oil

Our Oilseed Rape is grown, harvested, stored, cold pressed, filtered and bottled on our farm in Staffordshire, giving our oil 100% traceability, and therefore helps us to keep down food miles. As with olive oil, we gently squeeze the oil out at low temperatures, which allows the oil to retain its vitamins and high levels of Omega 3 and 6. Historically, olive oil has been considered the healthy oil, but now there is a real alternative, and the beauty of it is that it is indigenous.

Rapeseed oil contains half the saturated fat levels of olive oil, has 10 times more Omega 3 than olive oil, has a high burn point so is safe to use for frying and roasting, and its natural nutty flavour makes it ideal for salad dressings and marinades.
