Produced from a unique hull-less variety of Styrian pumpkins grown in Austria's famed Styria region, this 100% pure pumpkin seed oil is pressed from roasted seeds to develop its signature deep green color, rich aroma, and intensely nutty flavor. Long considered a culinary treasure in Austria and Slovenia, it delivers a distinctive taste that instantly elevates both savory and sweet dishes.
Best used as a finishing oil, it adds exceptional depth to salad dressings, vinaigrettes, roasted vegetables, soups, grilled meats, and cheeses. Try it drizzled over pumpkin soup, roasted winter squash, or butternut fries, or pair it with apple cider vinegar for a classic Styrian salad dressing. Its rich, toasted flavor also makes a surprising complement to vanilla ice cream, chocolate desserts, and fresh fruit. Because heat diminishes its delicate flavor and nutritional qualities, it is best enjoyed without cooking.
Castelmuro brings authentic European specialty ingredients to discerning cooks, showcasing regional traditions and exceptional craftsmanship. Made exclusively from Styrian pumpkins, this gourmet finishing oil captures one of Austria's most celebrated culinary specialties.
