Organic Hydro-Therm Almond Oil
Soak up the myriad benefits of almond oil, with Flora's unique Almond Oil Hydro-Therm blend. Almond oil has long been prized as a multi-purpose oil, used in skin care, cooking, and baking. Its culinary uses are key in maintaining a healthy lifestyle, as it contains omegas-6 (3 grams/tbsp.) and -9 (9 grams/tbsp.), key foundational fats that our bodies must obtain through dietary sources. Flora's unique hydro-therm technique, inspired by traditional European pressing, uses a gentle, low-temperature method, ensuring the protection of the full spectrum of essential fatty acids and the highest taste and quality.
Smoke Point: 420º
When oil begins to smoke it starts to breakdown, the process is called thermal oxidation. The smoke indicates that carcinogens are being released into the air and free radicals are forming in the oil. Oil that begins to smoke should ideally be discarded and replaced with fresh oil for optimal health and taste. Beware of highly processed supermarket oils. They are made with a long shelf life in mind, rather than considerations of dietary health. Know your fats!
