Yorkshire Rapeseed Oil: From Field to Kitchen
Exploring the Quality, Health Benefits, and Versatility of Yorkshire's Premium Cold-Pressed Cooking Oil
Nestled in the rolling hills of the Yorkshire Wolds, Yorkshire Rapeseed Oil is a family-run business with a passion for producing high-quality, cold-pressed rapeseed oil. Established in 2008 in the picturesque village of Thixendale, this award-winning company has grown into a household name for food lovers and home cooks alike. But what makes their products so special? Let’s dive into their journey, their commitment to local produce, and how their oils and dressings can transform your kitchen adventures.
Locally Grown, Expertly Pressed
Yorkshire Rapeseed Oil takes great pride in growing, pressing, and bottling their oil right on their farm. The chalky soils of the Yorkshire Wolds provide the perfect environment for producing top-quality rapeseed, and by keeping the process local, the company ensures freshness, sustainability, and a strong connection to the land.
Using a cold-pressing method, they extract the oil without heat or chemicals, preserving its natural goodness, high Omega-3 content, and delicious nutty flavour. This makes it an excellent alternative to other cooking oils, whether you’re roasting, baking, drizzling, or frying.
A Range of Delicious Products
While their signature cold-pressed rapeseed oil is the star of the show, Yorkshire Rapeseed Oil has developed a fantastic range of dressings, mayonnaises, and sauces to complement their oil. Their carefully crafted flavours are inspired by homegrown recipes, making them a must-have in any kitchen.
Some stand-out favourites include:
- Oak Smoked Oil – A collaboration with Staal Smokehouse, adding a rich, smoky depth to dishes.
- Smoked Chilli Dressing – Created with The Chilli Jam Man for a bold, spicy kick.
- Plant-Based Yorkshire Mayonnaise – A creamy, egg-free twist on a classic condiment.
From salad dressings to cooking staples, their products showcase the best of Yorkshire ingredients and culinary expertise.
Award-Winning Quality
Their dedication to quality hasn’t gone unnoticed. Yorkshire Rapeseed Oil has received numerous accolades, including the prestigious Great Taste Two-Star award for their cold-pressed oil. Their products are a staple in many homes, restaurants, and farm shops across the UK, proving that great-tasting, locally sourced food can shine on a national scale.
Supporting Local and Giving Back
Beyond producing outstanding products, Yorkshire Rapeseed Oil is deeply committed to supporting the local community. They work with fellow Yorkshire producers to create unique flavours and champion the region’s food heritage.
Additionally, they run ‘Farm Discovery Days’—free educational events designed to teach children about farming, food production, and where their meals come from. This initiative reflects their belief that understanding the journey from field to fork is key to appreciating and supporting local food.
