What is linseed oil?
Flaxseed oil is the oil obtained by pressing flaxseed at normal temperature, which contains 30%-48% yellow oil. Because it contains more linolenic acid, it has an unpleasant smell, which gradually thickens in the air and darkens in color. Because it is easy to oxidize and difficult to store, the storage conditions are high.
Linseed oil was originally mainly used in industry, and also used as edible oil in Eastern Europe. Flaxseed oil is still distributed in undeformed protein cells because it has not been fried or cooked at high temperature, and it is rich in various nutrients such as linolenic acid inherent in flaxseed. Hydrogenation can weaken or eliminate the unpleasant smell of linseed oil. At present, it has become one of the top ten oil crops in the world.
How to eat linseed oil
Linseed oil is nutritious, contains trace elements, is mellow and delicious, and can be used for cooking, cold salad, stuffing and soup. It can be added to almost any food as long as it meets your taste. However, attention should be paid to avoid the oil temperature exceeding 70%, so as to keep the nutrients in linseed oil from being destroyed to the maximum extent.
