In the early 1970s, Canadian growers used traditional breeding techniques to cultivate rapeseed, which greatly reduced the levels of erucic acid and glucosinolate in rapeseed plants. "Canola" is a combination of "Canadian" and "ola". The nutritional components of rapeseed oil and rapeseed oil are quite different and belong to two different vegetable oils. The main planting areas in the world are Canada, Australia, the United States and other regions, and there are also planting areas in Hulunbeier grassland in China; Double-low rapeseed is distinguished from rapeseed by strict international standards, that is, erucic acid is less than 2% and glucosinolates are less than 30 micromoles. If rape does not meet this standard, it cannot be called double low rape.
Basic introduction Chinese name: mbth: Rapeseed oil properties: edible vegetable oil advantages: low erucic acid overview, edible, suitable for cooking, misunderstanding the truth, English introduction, overview Mustard oil is obtained from mustard seeds, containing 60% unsaturated fatty acids, excellent nutrition, high oil stability and easy preparation. Soap made of mustard oil has fine and soft foam, good moisture retention and moistening degree, and is also suitable as a raw material for hand sanitizer. "Mustard oil" is only called in China. Because the word "canola" has no corresponding Chinese, this nickname was chosen for convenience. It has nothing to do with "mustard seed" in traditional Chinese medicine and "cauliflower" in Europe. Mustard oil contains not only monounsaturated fatty acids, but also rich essential fatty acids-linolenic acid and low linolenic acid, which cannot be synthesized by human body and need to be ingested from food. Dietary recommendations suggest that the daily intake of fat should not exceed 30% of the total daily calories, saturated fatty acids ≤ 10%, and polyunsaturated fatty acids.
