Hemp Seed Oil

Description

The cold pressed oil is made from selected varieties of edible hemp. The taste of the hemp oil is pleasantly mild and nutty, which gives the dishes a special touch. The edible hemp oil is characterized by the unsaturated fatty acids oleic, linoleic and linolenic acid as well as gamma-linolenic acid, which it contains as the only vegetable oil in an optimally digestible composition. These high-quality fatty acids are also known as omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids.

Hemp oil is one of the top suppliers of omega-3 fatty acids and is also cholesterol-free.

The cleaned and dried seeds are cold pressed purely mechanically in screw presses and filtered through frame filter presses.
Through the screw presses, the oil is therefore guaranteed free of solvents, for use in the food sector.

Edible hemp oil is indispensable for full cold cuisine. It is particularly suitable for salads, sauces, dips as well as spreads. It is not suitable for high heating (e.g. frying or deep-frying). So please do not heat it above 180° C!

Hemp – a magic word on everyone’s lips

We live in a time of constantly increasing demands and inform ourselves about high quality and naturalness of what we feed our bodies. For example, hemp, which for a long time only haunted the minds of society as a drug, is celebrating a comeback as an edible plant. This environmentally friendly and nutritionally valuable plant looks back on a long tradition.

A brief cultural history

The plant was cultivated in China as early as 3,000 B.C. and in India from about 900 B.C. onward. The Scythians extracted oil from hemp seeds and the Thracians wove clothes from its fibers, as Herodotus reports. The Greeks got to know hemp “only” in 500 BC and passed it on to the Romans under the name CANABIS. The Germanic tribes, Gauls and Carolingians also knew and used hemp. From numerous mentions in Hildegard von Bingen we know that the plant was widespread in the Middle Ages and highly valued for its positive effects.

Intelligent plant…

The hemp plant provides raw materials for industry and crafts, for food and pharmaceuticals. Among its many uses are products with high added value, whose cultivation can be quite profitable even without maximum yields. This welcome exception in today’s agriculture is joined by another extremely positive fact: hemp crops require practically no pesticides, thus helping the environment and also saving material and labor costs.

… with rich fruits

It is mainly the hemp seeds (botanically correct: nuts) that interest us. These lonely little nuts are full of ingredients whose value for humans and animals can hardly be surpassed.
