Uses
Vegetable oils are healthful and flavorful and provide many essential nutrients to the body, and they make a healthy and nourishing addition to body care products and a flavorful addition to culinary dishes and baked goods.
- Refrigeration is highly recommended for this oil. It is a very sensitive oil that can degrade quickly when exposed to extremes in temperature fluctuation, oxidization and light, and should not be heated. However, it can be used as a baking ingredient for breads, waffles, cookies, and crackers.
- It can be drizzled on top of salads, pasta, vegetables, or finished foods.
- It is a moisturizing oil and is a wonderful ingredient to add to body and skin care products like creams, lotions, massage oils, and hair care products.
Ingredients: Wheat Germ Oil (Triticum spp.)
Allergen: Contains Wheat. Because this oil is unrefined, the protein may not be removed from the oil that can cause the wheat allergy.
Packaging: To preserve and maintain their beneficial properties for years, our 4 fl oz and 16 fl oz Vegetable Oils are packaged in light resistant, dark glass amber bottles with a pressure sealed lid and a taper seal poly liner. This elegant bottle is the perfect way to protect light-sensitive liquids, because the dark amber glass helps prevent light degradation.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, and avoid direct sunlight and heat. Preserving Oils: If stored improperly for long periods of time, the oils may become rancid. They have a minimum 2 year shelf life when stored properly. When making products with vegetable oils, you can also add 2% Vitamin E Oil to act as a natural preservative.
