Fats and OilsUpdated a day ago
We use only cold-pressed oils in our meals and puddings because they’re the purest, most natural forms of oil available—retaining their full flavour, aroma and nutritional integrity without the need for chemical processing or high heat. This method protects the healthy fats and beneficial compounds naturally present in the oils.
In our savoury meals, we only cook with Extra Virgin Olive Oil, prized for its rich flavour and high levels of heart-healthy monounsaturated fats and antioxidants.
For our new puddings, we’ve chosen Cold-Pressed Rapeseed Oil. Unlike industrially processed seed oils, cold-pressed rapeseed oil is mechanically extracted without heat or solvents. It has a mild, buttery flavour and an excellent balance of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, as well as a high vitamin E content.
We avoid refined seed oils because we are concerned about how they’re processed and their nutritional quality.
All our meals are low in saturated fats, and in addition to cold-pressed oils our meals include healthy fats from ingredients such as:
- Salmon
- Seeds
- Pine nuts
- Coconut milk
- Olives
- Tofu & edamame
- Pulses and legumes
- Whole grains
- Oats
- Cocoa
While we don’t use Nuts in our meals due to facility restrictions, we do offer them as a companion product. Nuts are a great source of healthy fats, as well as protein and fibre, so are perfect for snacking or adding to your meal at home for getting more healthy fats into your diet
