Grapeseed oil is enjoying a rapid rise in popularity today. Although this oil is relatively new to our market, it has been produced and enjoyed in Europe for many years—sold not only as a cooking oil, but also in French pharmacies as a remedy for high cholesterol. In fact, grapeseed oil is one of the only foods shown to not only lower LDL (“bad”) cholesterol, but also increase HDL (“good”) cholesterol—a distinct advantage over other oils.Our grapeseed oil is available unflavored or with natural flavoring oils, and enhances your favorite cooking:

•          Delicious: Unlike canola oil, grapeseed oil has a wonderful, light flavor; unlike olive oil, its light, neutral flavor won’t clash with certain foods.

•          Versatile: Excellent as a dipping oil, on pastas, for sautéing and stir-frying; as the primary oil in salad dressings and marinades; anywhere you  would use cooking oil.

•          Low in saturated fat: At 8%, it has only half the saturated fat of olive oil; the lowest of all oils except canola.

•          Highest in polyunsaturated fat: (72%), all as linoleic acid (Omega-6), which has the greatest effect in raising HDL (good) cholesterol and lowering LDL (bad) cholesterol and triglycerides (fat carried in the blood).

•          Environmentally friendly: Pressed from grape seeds in Italy after wine production, it requires no new farmland or water to produce.

•          Contains antioxidants: Contains vitamin E, and a group of bioflavonoids known as proanthocyanadins,some of the most powerful known   natural antioxidants.

                  High flashpoint: Highest flashpoint of all cooking oils;

Dried herbs are concentrated and convenient; so are Liquid Spices! Simply use them in the same amounts as their dried counterparts.

Chipolte Liquid Spice  OK, so what’s a chipotle? A chipotle (chee-POTE-lay) chile is a jalapeño which is ripened to a brilliant red, then smoke-dried over a mesquite fire. Watkins has captured the smoky heat and deep, rich flavor of chipotle peppers in a base of pure grapeseed oil to make this delightful Liquid Spice. Its intense flavor is perfectly suited to foods like barbecue, chili and grilled fare, and adds a deliciously piquant counterpoint to cream sauces, dips and mayonnaise spreads.• Season steaks on the grill for extra smoky flavor and spicy heat.• Add to barbecue sauce for Tex-Mex flavor.• Stir into mayonnaise for a colorful, tasty spread.• Use to brown meat and onions for chili; add more later.• Shake on fajitas for authentic, smoky flavor.• Stir into pesto sauce, salsa or tomato sauce for a unique lift.
