Questions about Rapeseed oil

Can you use rapeseed oil for frying?

Yes. Refined rapeseed oil works well for frying and roasting; for deep-frying, heat it to about 180 °C and avoid letting it smoke. Cold-pressed oil is better kept for lower-heat cooking or dressings, as its flavour and aroma are less suited to high heat.

Can you bake with rapeseed oil instead of butter?

Yes, especially in cakes, muffins and quick breads. As a starting point, use about 80 g of oil for every 100 g of butter, and remember that oil will not give you the same buttery flavour or creamed texture.

How do you make a dressing with rapeseed oil?

Whisk three parts rapeseed oil with one part vinegar or lemon juice, then add mustard, salt and pepper. Cold-pressed rapeseed oil gives the dressing a gentle, nutty flavour; refined oil tastes more neutral.

How should you store rapeseed oil?

Keep the bottle tightly closed in a cool, dark cupboard, away from the oven and direct sunlight. Use it within a few months of opening for the freshest flavour, especially if it is cold-pressed.

Is rapeseed oil the same as canola oil?

Canola oil is a type of rapeseed oil produced from low-erucic-acid varieties. The names are often used interchangeably on food products, though the exact wording can depend on where the oil is made or sold.

What is the difference between cold-pressed and refined rapeseed oil?

Cold-pressed oil is extracted without high heat and usually has a more noticeable, sometimes nutty flavour. Refined rapeseed oil has a milder taste and is generally the more practical choice for high-heat cooking.

Can you use rapeseed oil in mayonnaise?

Yes. Its mild flavour makes refined rapeseed oil a good base for mayonnaise: whisk an egg yolk with a little mustard and lemon juice, then add the oil very slowly at first so the mixture emulsifies rather than splitting.
