PRIMABENE® Styrian Pumpkin Seed Oil comes 100% from Styria. The high-quality Styrian oil pumpkins provide soft-shelled seeds that are particularly suitable for oil extraction. In addition to the fatty oil, the pumpkin seeds contain approximately 25% protein, fruit acids, resin, lecithin, and cucurbitacins. The chlorophyll contained in the seed hull and the carotene give the pumpkin seed oil its dark color.
PRIMABENE® Styrian Pumpkin Seed Oil is a gourmet oil with an intense, nutty flavor that is particularly suitable for refining dishes such as salads, dips, spreads, and desserts.
