The oil should only be eaten raw – heating destroys its valuable properties. Pumpkin seed oil can be used:
- as a salad dressing
- on sandwiches and with cottage cheese
in desserts, thanks to its nutty taste.
After pressing, it stays fresh and fit for consumption for:
- 4 months at room temperature, from the date of pressing.
Keeping the oil in the fridge significantly extends its shelf life. At the same time, the oil's other biochemical qualities keep their health-promoting properties when the product is stored at a lower temperature.
