Basso’s sunflower seed oil is best used raw to fully benefit from its high vitamin E content. It’s ideal for seasoning salads or cold dishes, preparing vegetable preserves and as an emulsifier for sauces. Sunflower seed oil is produced from the dried seeds of Helianthus Annus through a prior solvent extraction. The crude oil obtained undergoes a refining process until a clear, straw-yellow oil is obtained, free of unusual odours and flavors and with chemical characteristics that comply with legal requirements.
