About the product

Wellbear Camelina Oil Cold Pressed is a 100% oil from camelina seeds (Camelina sativa), cold-pressed in a Polish oil mill. Camelina, also known as false flax, is a traditional Polish crop that has returned to favor after decades of being forgotten - camelina oil is one of the oldest edible oils in this part of Europe.

Flavor comes first here: peppery, with a distinct note of onion and earth, quite different from linseed or rapeseed oil. It can take some getting used to, but those who come to like it usually stay with it for good. The oil is unrefined and unfiltered, which gives it its golden-amber color and a natural sediment at the bottom of the bottle - simply shake before use.

• 100% camelina seed oil - a single ingredient, pressed in Poland

Purpose

An oil for dishes served cold. Traditionally spread on bread instead of butter, with salt and pepper - this is how it has been enjoyed in Poland for generations. Beyond that: salads, coleslaw and grated carrot, fermented vegetables, cottage cheese spreads, potatoes and cooked grains drizzled once cooled, cold soups. Add to cooked dishes only after they have cooled down. Not suitable for frying or baking - high temperatures degrade the polyunsaturated fatty acids. Vegan. Not for people allergic to camelina.

How to use

1 tablespoon (12 g) a day - stirred into a dish just before serving, or straight from the spoon. Because of its intense aroma, start with a smaller amount - even a little noticeably changes the flavor of a dish. The oil is also sometimes used externally, for skin and hair care.

Storage

Store in the refrigerator (4-10°C), in a dark bottle, tightly closed. Once opened, use within a month - given the bottle size, it is worth planning your use, as unrefined oil oxidizes under the influence of light, heat and air. The date on the label also serves as the batch number.
