The refined rapeseed oil intensifies the natural flavour of food and has a high smoke point of **0 degree Celsius. During the production process the rapeseeds are crushed between large rollers and then pressed. After the extraction of the press cake the oil is cleansed.

By contrast, the cold-pressed rapeseed oil improves, with a fresh and nutty note, in particular cold dishes. During the pressing the temperature does not exceed the *0 degree Celsius mark. Afterwards, in order to maintain the flavour the oil is merely filtered.

In the past, rapeseed oil was hardly edible because the existing rapeseed varieties contained the bitter tasting erucic acid. Only when it was accomplished to breed varieties "poor in" or "free of" erucic acid, rapeseed oil was ready to be used as an aliment. Today, almost only special varieties of rapeseeds (**- rapeseed) are planted. They were, apart from the erucic acid, "freed of" other substances (glucosinolates) during the breeding. In North America this **- rapeseed is called canola
