Duchess Rapeseed Oil

General information

A British product that I hope will capture the imaginations and taste buds of everyone that use's it. Rapeseed is a crop we grow on the farm and make into oil that is brilliantly versatile in the kitchen. Its subtle nutty taste lends itself seamlessly to dressings, fish and pesto's – or it can be simply drizzled on bread as a tasty alternative to butter. Duchess Oil's subtlety allows the flavor of foods to come through. It is also an ideal and healthy substitute to margarine when baking cakes, puddings and biscuits. With a high smoke point of around 220°C, it can be used in roasting and stir-frying: people often comment on the wonderful roast potatoes produced using it and how well you can fry an egg!
