It also has 50% of the saturated fat content compared to olive oil, contains no additives and is a good source of natural Vitamin E.
Like us you will probably have been shocked and maybe even horrified by the recent tripling of the price of olive oil in your usual shop or supermarket.
However, you'll be cheered up to learn that there are some substantial savings benefits when comparing rapeseed oil to basic oils, such as olive oil.
The Borderfields story started back in the year 2005, when a group of farmers from Northumberland and The Scottish Borders were able to expertly grow a crop and bottle an inaugural batch of rapeseed oil.
Having cultivated rapeseed for a good many years, they carefully selected the ideal seed variety to produce an oil with a delectable flavour profile and an amazing golden hue.
The partnership quickly joined forces with experienced Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire growers to press extra seeds to ensure future generations of farmers continue their responsibility to carefully nurture and manage crops and continue to improve environmental practice working in harmony with nature and not against it.
That's Food and Drink was interested to learn that rapeseed oil is from the third most important crop grown in the UK, following wheat and barley. Other vegetable oils, like olive oil or sunflower oil, are mainly imported from mainland Europe or even further afield.
If you are ready to introduce this golden, healthy British produced oil into your kitchen and make substantial savings on your household budget, now's the time to do it.
You'll find it at your local supermarket, independent retailers, and also online. Visit their website for your nearest stockist or fill your basket via their online store for delivery direct to your doorstep (although a minimum order applies).
