Frequently Asked Questions
What is Grapeseed Oil? Grapeseed oil is a light, clean-tasting culinary oil cold-pressed from grape seeds — a byproduct of winemaking. Tubac Gourmet Foods offers it in a 12oz (375ml) bottle, ideal for everyday gourmet cooking.
What makes it "extra virgin" or high quality? High-quality grapeseed oil is prized for its neutral flavor profile and moderately high smoke point, making it one of the most versatile oils in a gourmet kitchen — it won't overpower delicate ingredients the way stronger oils can.
What is the smoke point of grapeseed oil? Grapeseed oil has a moderately high smoke point (around 420°F / 215°C), making it suitable for sautéing, stir-frying, and other higher-heat cooking methods where olive oil might break down.
How do I use it? It's extremely versatile:
- Sautéing & stir-frying — handles heat well without smoking or imparting off-flavors
- Salad dressings & vinaigrettes — light and clean, it lets other ingredients shine
- Baking — a neutral substitute for vegetable or canola oil
- Marinades — blends smoothly without competing with herbs and spices
How does it compare to olive oil? Grapeseed oil is lighter and more neutral in flavor than olive oil, with a higher smoke point. It's a great complement to olive oil — use grapeseed for high-heat cooking and olive oil for finishing and low-heat applications.
How much does it cost and what size is it? $20.00 for a 12oz (375ml) bottle.
Does it need to be refrigerated? Store in a cool, dark place away from heat and light. Refrigeration is not required but can extend shelf life once opened.
Is it good for skin or hair? Grapeseed oil is popular in beauty routines for its light texture and antioxidant content, but our product is a food-grade culinary oil — we recommend using it in the kitchen!
