• Why olive oil?

    Olive oil is a type of monounsaturated fat that is derived from olives. It is considered to be a healthy fat and has been shown to have numerous health benefits. Some of the benefits of olive oil include:

    • Heart health: Olive oil is rich in monounsaturated fats, which have been shown to lower LDL (bad) cholesterol levels and improve HDL (good) cholesterol levels. This can help to reduce the risk of heart disease.

    • Anti-inflammatory: Olive oil contains compounds known as polyphenols, which have anti-inflammatory properties. This can help to reduce inflammation in the body, which has been linked to a number of chronic diseases.

    • Weight management: Some studies have shown that olive oil may help with weight management by increasing feelings of fullness and reducing the intake of other, less healthy fats.

    • Cancer prevention: Some research suggests that olive oil may have a protective effect against certain types of cancer, such as breast and colon cancer.

    In comparison, seed oils (such as vegetable oil, canola oil, rapeseed oil and sunflower oil) are often made from genetically modified crops and are highly processed. They are also high in omega-6 fatty acids, which have been linked to inflammation in the body when consumed in excess. For these reasons, olive oil is generally considered to be a healthier choice compared to seed oils.

  • Storage + Shelf life

    Our chilli oil is shelf-stable and can be safely stored at ambient temperatures. Our oil does not need to be refrigerated, however, we do recommend using a clean spoon when serving the crispy chilli oil (no double-dipping guys).

    This will help extend its freshness and shelf life since we do not use preservatives in our products.
