Description

Cold-Pressed High Oleic Sunflower Oil with Lemongrass - 250ml

Freshly cut, the lemongrass stalk releases an intense lemon fragrance, with a subtle trace of ginger and a floral note that sets it apart from ordinary citrus. It is precisely this aroma that we wanted to keep alive in a cold-pressed High Oleic sunflower oil with lemongrass — a rare edible oil in Romania, without the acidity of lemon, yet with all its freshness.

An aroma borrowed from Asian cuisine

Lemongrass is the backbone of the gastronomy of Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia — from Tom Yum soup to coconut-milk curries. We leave it to infuse in our High Oleic oil, pressed below 40°C in Tălmăcel, Sibiu, so that the flavour transfers without being lost during the pressing process. The result: High Oleic oil with dried lemongrass (citronella, max. 5%), free from artificial flavours, 87% Omega-9 and acidity below 0.8%. We test every seed batch before pressing, just as we do with all our flavoured oils.

Perfect pairings

• White fish, salmon, seafood and ceviche
• Lemongrass chicken, wok dishes and light Asian curries
• Tom Yum soup and marinades for the grill
• Iced teas, lemonades and fresh sauces, as an alternative to lemon juice

Why it is not an essential oil

If you were looking for lemongrass for aromatherapy or a diffuser, this is not the essential oil you need — it is a cooking oil, meant for the plate, not to be diluted for massage. The difference matters: here you get a kitchen aroma, not a concentrate for topical use.
