Cooking: With a high heat tolerance of up to 200 degrees C/ 400 degrees F/Gas Mark 6, this oil is an excellent choice for healthy cooking.
Try it out for light sautéing, lightly drizzle it on salads or use it to make salad dressing or pasta. You can also use it with a little cinnamon on toast.

Chia seed oil is available online and sold in shops that sell health related products.
