Hemp Oil Recipes

The oil from the hemp seed plant has some amazing health benefits!

There are few plants on the earth that can boast the benefits of the hemp plant, which is why hemp oil is rising in popularity around the world. Hemp oil can be purchased online or at a plethora of health food stores. Because it is fairly inexpensive, using hemp oil recipes in everyday life is a completely viable (and beneficial!) option.

Organic hemp oil is pressed from hemp seeds, and contains all the nutrients of the hemp seed in a convenient form. Hemp oil in its natural state is high in essential fatty acids (EFA), vitamins and antioxidants. Because of this, hemp oil is an extremely healthy food choice. Several hemp oil recipes have been created due to the recent interest in hemp and its nutritional benefits.

Hemp oil has a nutty, wholesome taste. The hemp seed undergoes a stringent cleaning process before being pressed, so organic hemp oil looks and tastes pleasant. It naturally has a greenish hue; the greener the oil, the grassier the taste.

Hemp oil has a very low smoke point, so while it does not make good frying oil, hemp oil works very well in baked goods such as breads, waffles, pastries, cakes and brownies. Also, because hemp oil has a very flavorful taste (unlike other cooking oils), it can also be enjoyed by itself, drizzled over pasta and salads or used as a dipping oil!

Many hemp oil recipes can be found online. Vegans and vegetarians love cooking with hemp oil because it is a pure, organic substance that actually tastes good! With recipes such as apple hemp muffins and hemp fudge, hemp meatloaf and more, who wouldn’t want to take advantage of this amazing food and all the nutritious benefits it offers?

Hemp oil has a very impressive 3:1 ratio of Omega-6 to Omega-3 EFA. (Most foods have a 10:1 ratio.) Omegas are very important to the natural health of the body. They reduce the risk of certain kinds of cancers, rheumatoid arthritis, bipolar disorders and more. This makes it a perfect oil to incorporate into any number of foods. With hemp oil recipes, you can make sure your foods are equipped with the right nutrients without having to buy expensive supplements.

Hemp seed has been proven to be more nutritious than flax seed oil, and is able to be used in many more ways. With its essential fatty acid content and its high protein level, more and more people are looking to hemp oil to solve their dietary needs. While hemp oil recipes are used for dietary advantages, it has also been shown to improve the conditions of the skin and aid in problems such as eczema.

Other hemp oil recipes include pasta salad, tomato coulis, hemp pesto and salad dressing. Hemp seed oil has a shelf life of six months to one year. Because it is unsaturated it does not keep as long as other oils and needs to be stored properly in a cool, dark place. It is recommended that hemp oil be refrigerated to prolong its shelf life.
