Why Welland Valley rapeseed oil?
Welland Valley premium, cold-pressed rape seed oil. ‘A first class culinary oil’. We’re master growers of rapeseed; we’ve been cultivating crops since the 1940s – and we know just how to get the best out of them. Oil can be extracted from the seed in two ways, either using a heat treatment which benefits large scale production but yields a lower grade oil – or by ‘cold pressing’ the seed which yields a higher grade of oil but is not conducive to mass production. We don’t use mass production techniques to extract the oil (no heat extraction, de-gumming, bleaching); ours is virgin seed and ‘cold pressed’ in order to retain its vital nutrients. It’s free of any additives, chemicals, detergents or deodorisers – we simply press the oil out of the seed, pass it through a filter and bottle it into beautiful golden oil.
