Taste is excellent and the price was rightOct 11, 2011
By Stephen M. Lerch
Sunflower oil. During a recent trip to Europe I had the opportunity to be blown away and not by the amazing architecture! When I ordered French fries (or chips, maybe), I was met with a light, unique flavor. And it wasn't just the fries that I was enjoying. After inquiring to my fiance, a European, as to the taste, she told me they cook nearly everything in sunflower oil. How have I gone so long without ever having the opportunity to enjoy sunflower oil? It seems it is the corn industry of Europe, so sunflower oil is "cheap" in Europe like corn oil is cheap here in the US.
The other issue is that sunflower oil in the US, when and if you can find it, is super expensive. Sure, the Zvijezda oil isn't cheap even after shipping, it was still cheaper than the $5 for 16 oz I can find in stores, so I jumped on this.
I assume the marketplace seller didn't have anymore of the 3L bottles and instead shipped 3- 1 liter bottles instead, which was just fine with me as it takes up just about the same amount of space in the cupboard.
Sunflower oil has a lighter taste than corn oil but still definable. Sunflower oil also has a similar smoke point as corn oil, which means you can use it at a higher temperatures (especially for deep frying). Over all, I am quite pleased with this oil. It isn't the highest grade, but if you are using it for cooking over cosmetic use (go for higher grade for something like that!), this is a heck of a deal and a great replacement or compliment next to your corn and olive oil (if you want oil to flavor something, best to use olive).
