Futuro Sunflower Oil:
- The oil that comes out while pressing the seeds of sunflower is sunflower oil. This is a non-volatile oil that people use mostly in frying and making cosmetics. The proportion of fatty acid in the oil depends upon the selective breed of sunflower.
- The highest production of this oil in the world is 15.8 million tonnes during the year 2014. It is liquid at room temperature and has mild nutty odor.
- Refining the said oil through solvent extraction, neutralization, and bleaching can make it more stable and suitable for high-temperature cooking. But, it will also lead to loss of some of the oil’s nutrients, flavor, color, free fatty acids, etc., Also some of the polyunsaturated fatty acids will be converted into trans fat due to the high temperatures involved in the process. Unrefined oil is less heat-stable and therefore it is well suitable for dishes that are either raw or cooked at low temperatures. Above all, it will retain more of its original nutrient content, flavor, and color.
- People use refined oil mainly for deep frying at high temperatures and unrefined sunflower oil as a traditional salad dressing. This oil is also an ingredient in preparing sunflower butter. Studies suggest that this oil, when mixed with diesel, runs diesel engines.
