Production & Sourcing
Harvesting: Mature flaxseeds are harvested from the flax plant.
Cleaning: The harvested flaxseeds are cleaned to remove any impurities, debris, or foreign particles.
Cold Pressing: The cleaned flaxseeds are mechanically pressed at low temperatures (hence the term “cold pressing”). This process involves applying pressure to the seeds using hydraulic presses, which extracts the oil without using heat. Cold pressing helps retain the oil’s natural flavor, color, and nutritional qualities.
Filtering: The extracted oil is then filtered to remove any remaining solid particles.

Benefits
Flaxseed oil has a mild, nutty flavor with a subtle earthy undertone. The flavor is delicate and can enhance the taste of dishes without overpowering them.
Flaxseed oil is liquid at room temperature and has a smooth, silky texture. It doesn’t have the graininess associated with whole flaxseeds.
Flaxseed oil typically has a golden-yellow to pale amber color. The color can vary depending on factors like the type of flax used and the extraction process.
Flaxseed oil is rich in essential fatty acids, particularly alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), which is a type of omega-3 fatty acid. It’s also a source of vitamin E, an antioxidant that supports skin health. Flaxseed oil does not contain the fiber and lignans present in whole flaxseeds.
Flaxseed oil doesn’t have moisture-absorbing or binding properties like whole flaxseeds or flaxseed meal. It remains a liquid and doesn’t contribute to binding or thickening in the same way as the solid components.
Flaxseed oil has a subtle nutty aroma, similar to its flavor. The aroma can be more pronounced when the oil is freshly extracted.
Flaxseed oil provides a balance of mild flavor and smooth texture. Its liquid form can contrast with solid ingredients in dishes.
Flaxseed oil has gained popularity globally due to its nutritional benefits. While not specific to any one culture, it’s used in various cuisines as a source of healthy fats and flavor.
Flaxseed oil is suitable for various dietary preferences. It’s particularly favored by those seeking plant-based sources of omega-3 fatty acids. It’s often used in vegetarian and vegan diets to provide essential nutrients. However, it’s important to note that flaxseed oil is sensitive to heat and light, which can lead to oxidation. It’s best stored in a cool, dark place and consumed within its recommended shelf life to preserve its nutritional quality.
