sunflower oil

Sunflower oil is one of the most popular vegetable oils - and for good reason! With its light yellow color and mild taste, it is a real all-rounder in the kitchen. It is obtained from the seeds of the sunflower, which are peeled, ground and pressed after harvesting. Refining removes unwanted components so that the oil remains particularly heat-stable and tasteless.

Worth knowing

The sunflower originally comes from North America and only came to Europe through the Spanish conquerors. In the 19th century, targeted cultivation as an oil plant began, and today sunflower oil is one of the most important cooking oils worldwide.

Thanks to its high content of unsaturated fatty acids and vitamin E, it is valued not only for its versatility but also for its nutritional properties. Whether for frying, baking or for dressings – sunflower oil is always suitable.
