Product Name
Sunflower oil
Description
Sunflower oil is extracted from the seeds of the sunflower which grows in various -warmer- climates across most continents.
Applications
Sunflower oil is highly unsaturated and liquid at room temperatures. It is well suited for producing mayonnaise, mayonnaise-based sauces, dressings, and frying applications. When combined with tropical oils, they are specifically suited for final products such as margarine or hazelnut spreads.
Advantages
The high oleic variant has a high content of monounsaturated oleic acid increasing its stability versus the classic variant. The high heat resistance of the oil provides a longer life cycle with excellent performance as a frying oil.
Manufacturing Process
Sunflower oil contains natural waxes which can result in a hazy appearance. These waxes can be removed by a processing step, called winterisation. Similar to fractionation, winterising cools down the oil, allowing it to be filtered to a clear transparent oil. The winterised oil is now ready for bottling or to be used as an ingredient in mayonnaise.
