Everything You Need To Know
Q. How is this Flaxseed Oil made?
A. Flaxseeds are slowly crushed in traditional wooden churns (lakdi ghani) at low ambient temperatures. PIP AGRO works with Vandan Agro and Maa Reva Vedic Food to produce this single-ingredient, unrefined oil.
Q. What ingredients are used in this Flaxseed Oil?
A. 100% wood-pressed flaxseed oil (Linum usitatissimum), also called Alsi or Jawas oil. The facility also handles peanuts, tree nuts and oilseeds; follow the allergen information on your bottle.
Q. What makes this Flaxseed Oil worth choosing?
A. Its mild nutty flavour, golden-amber colour and traditional wooden extraction make it an appealing finishing oil for customers who prefer unrefined oils. Add a little to a fresh dressing, a dip or a smoothie, or drizzle it over a finished meal according to the pack directions. Enjoy it without frying or high-heat cooking.
Q. How can I enjoy Flaxseed Oil in everyday meals?
A. Stir into salad dressings, dips or smoothies, or drizzle over curds, oatmeal, dal or soup after cooking, following the pack's dietary-use directions. Use as a raw or finishing oil, not for frying or high-heat cooking.
Q. What is the shelf life, and how should I store it?
A. The shelf life is 9 months from manufacture. Keep tightly capped in a cool, dry, dark place away from sunlight and stove heat. Refrigerate after opening, keep tightly closed and return the bottle promptly to the refrigerator after pouring. Follow any additional pack instructions and its printed best-before date. Keep the original bottle upright in a cool, dry, dark cupboard, away from sunny windows, the stove and other heat sources. Close the cap promptly and tightly after every use to limit contact with air. Keep water, steam and wet utensils out of the oil; use only clean, completely dry utensils and do not pour used oil back into the bottle. Note the opening date and follow the printed best-before date and any shorter after-opening instructions on the pack. Opening does not restart the shelf life. Do not continue using oil if it develops an unusual rancid or stale smell; contact us if you are unsure.
