Fussels 'Why British Cold Pressed Rapeseed Oil is the Better Choice'

When it comes to cooking oils, there are countless options available on the market. From olive oil to coconut oil, it can be overwhelming to decide which one is the best fit for your needs. One oil that stands out among the rest is Fussels British cold pressed rapeseed oil, which is grown, pressed and bottled in Rode, Somerset. Here's why we think it's the better choice compared to imports from other countries.

First and foremost, British cold pressed rapeseed oil is a healthier option. It is naturally high in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, which are beneficial for heart health. It also contains a high amount of Omega-3 and Omega-6, essential fatty acids that are important for brain and eye health. Also not forgetting, it has a high smoke point, making it a great option for high-heat cooking methods such as frying, stir-frying, roasting, grilling and sautéing, but equally great when used to make dressings and dips.

Another advantage of British cold pressed rapeseed oil is its low environmental impact. Rapeseed is a crop that is grown in the UK, which means it doesn't have to be imported from other countries. This reduces the carbon footprint associated with transportation and helps to support local farmers. You might not be aware, there are many products on our supermarket shelves containing imported rapeseed oil that has been grown using methods which are illegal in this country, so it is always best to check.

In addition to its health and environmental benefits, British cold pressed rapeseed oil also has a unique and delicious taste. It has a light, nutty flavour that pairs well with a variety of dishes, making it versatile in the kitchen. It is a great carrier of flavour and does not dominate in the dish you’re preparing.

When it comes to buying cooking oils, it's important to consider where they come from and how they are produced. Fussels British cold pressed rapeseed oil is the better choice because it is healthier, has a lower environmental impact, and has a unique and delicious taste. So next time you're in the grocery store or shopping online, make sure you choose 100% British cold pressed rapeseed oil and support local farmers while improving your health. We'd love it even more if you purchase Fussels Cold Pressed Rapeseed Oil.
