See how these 4 traditional recipes can be enhanced with cold-pressed oils for added flavor and health benefits.
#1. Tomato and cucumber salad with sesame oil
Tomatoes and cucumbers are ingredients we often use in salads, but sesame oil can completely change the taste of this simple combination.
Why do they go so well together?
The sesame oil adds a light nutty flavor that balances the freshness of the tomatoes and cucumbers. It's a simple choice that enriches the taste without much effort.
Health Note: Sesame oil is a good source of vitamin E and healthy fatty acids, which help keep skin hydrated and support bone health.
#2. Wraps with avocado oil
A delicate oil that adds a creamy texture to the filling and helps soften the cabbage leaves.
Why do they go so well together?
The avocado oil has a subtle taste and goes perfectly with the meat and rice filling, making the sarmales softer and easier to digest, without changing the flavor you're used to.
Health note: Avocado oil helps maintain heart health due to its content of healthy fats, which help lower cholesterol.
#3. Vinaigrette salad with pumpkin oil
The vinaigrette salad, with its cooked vegetables and tangy pickles, becomes a completely different salad if you add cold-pressed pumpkin oil. The light seed flavor of this oil goes well with the sweetness of the beets and the acidity of the pickles.
Why do they go so well together?
The pumpkin oil adds a more intense flavor and perfectly complements the combination of vegetables and pickles without being overpowering.
Health Note: Pumpkin seed oil is known to support prostate health and help boost immunity, thanks to its high zinc content.
#4. Baked chicken with avocado oil
If you want a juicy baked chicken with a crispy crust, avocado oil can help you achieve just that. It withstands high temperatures and helps create that crispy crust while keeping the meat tender.
Why do they go so well together?
Avocado oil is one of the few oils that holds up well to high temperatures, making it perfect for cooking in the oven. It gives the chicken a crispy crust on the outside and keeps the meat juicy on the inside.
Health note: Avocado oil is rich in healthy fats, which especially support heart health.
