To know more about oilseed pastes and purees
Oilseeds, quesaco?
Oilseeds are plants that are cultivated specifically for their nuts, fruits or seeds. They contain a lot of fatty acids and lipids.
Within the family of oilseeds we distinguish :
les Oilseeds which are derived from green plants. This category includes rapeseed, sunflower, soya, sesame, castor and flax.
Oilseed fruits, also known as dried fruit, are produced by trees. Walnuts, coconuts, hazelnuts, almonds, pine nuts and other nuts belong to this category
Why eat oilseed pastes?
The benefits of oilseeds
Oilseeds are food with many virtues for the body.
They regulate intestinal transit.
They reduce stress and act as a natural antidepressant.
They provide a feeling of satiety.
They help to prevent certain diseases.
Nutritional benefits of oilseed pasta
Oilseed pastes, which are also often found under the name of puree, are excellent for replacing fats of animal origin because they have several nutritional benefits.
They are rich in fatty acids. In this case, they are called "good fats" and not "bad fats". These unsaturated fatty acids are beneficial because they help maintain good cardiovascular health.
They are a source of vegetable proteins that are easily assimilated by the body. Oilseed purées are therefore perfect to replace animal fat filled with saturated fats.
They are composed of vitamins B and E. B vitamins are sources of energy for the body.
B vitamins are sources of energy for the body.
Vitamin E is an antioxidant.
They are rich in minerals and trace elements such as phosphorus, calcium, iron and magnesium, which are deficient in many areas.
Top 3 of the best oilseed pastes
Almond puree
Marzipan is very rich in calcium, magnesium, and vitamin E. It can be either white or complete depending on preference. The white puree has a neutral taste and is therefore a good substitute for butter in the kitchen. Complete almond paste, on the other hand, has a stronger taste and a slightly grainy texture. Whole almond puree is also richer in protein and magnesium.
Hazelnut puree
It is very rich in vitamin B9 and omega 9 which have anti-oxidant properties. Hazelnut purée is ideal, when mixed with cocoa, to replace traditional chocolate spreads.
Sesame paste
La Sesame puree is also known as tahini and exists in several forms: white, semi-complete, complete or black. It is rich in iron, calcium, magnesium and zinc. Being saltier than the others, it is better when mixed in salty culinary preparations (hummus, quiches, sauces...).
Making your own hazelnut spread
Even making a spread is easy and less expensive than you might think. Discover a delicious recipe to make your own chocolate and hazelnut spread from home.
Ingredients for making a jar of spread
150 g hazelnut purée
95 g acacia honey
25 g cocoa powder
80 ml hazelnut milk
A few drops of vanilla
Preparation
Nothing could be simpler, just mix all the ingredients in a bowl with the exception of the hazelnut milk.
Then add the hazelnut milk little by little to the mixture.
Pour the mixture into a glass jar and put it in the fridge.
The preparation so easily obtained can be kept in the fridge for up to two weeks.
Warning on the use of oilseed pastes
It is not recommended for some people to eat oilseed pasta because of allergies.
Allergies to nuts are not uncommon and are even among the most common food allergies. People with an allergy to any of the nuts are therefore advised not to take a product containing any of the nuts.
In addition, oilseed purees are rich in oxalates, which contribute to the formation of stones. Consumption of these purees is therefore not recommended for people suffering from kidney stones.
For people with hormone-dependent cancer, it is not advisable to eat foods containing phyto-oestrogens, of which sesame is one.
