Janel’s Italian Dressing made with Smude Cold Pressed High Oleic Sunflower Oil (recipe featured under Popular Recipes on this site)

Cucumbers, washed well, sliced thick (cut each slice into halves or quarters-I leave skin on)

Grape tomatoes, whole; or cherry tomatoes, cut in half; or other tomatoes, cut into pieces

Shredded parmesan cheese

Mix cucumber, tomatoes and Janel’s Italian dressing in large bowl. You can eat this immediately But I prefer to cover and refrigerate at least an hour or more. Remove from refrigerator, stir. If you like, transfer to a serving bowl. Sprinkle on the shredded parmessan cheese before serving (optional).

“I want to tell you this is the best cooking oil I have ever used. The flavor everything taste buttery and I think it is worth every penny.”Mary F

I have a lot of allergies and have been looking for an oil that I KNOW does not have any preservatives. I have been able to use the Smude sunflower oil with no negative reactions. It is a winner!Maret Ryan

I tasted your dressings at the farmers market in Isle. I did not have internet at the cabin, so could not get the recipe. I played with ingredients from the market using smude oil, fresh garlic, onions and spices. I mixed with lemon, vinegar and stevia (instead of sugar). All the combos turned out awesome. Seems like whatever I try with this oil it is a success!Yummy product.Nancy

MY HUSBAND FRYED CHICKEN LAST NITE. ABSOLUTELY GREAT, DIDNT TASTE LIKE THAT WHEN I USED REGUALR VEGETABLE OIL! THANKS.Pat

Can I just say this – What a fabulous product. A friend of mine told me about your website, I read the newspaper article, was so excited to find the oil sold close to my home,made my purchase, immediately went home and made the most amazing bowl of popcorn which is my alltime favorite snack.Smude Sunflower Oil has forever changed the way I will make popcorn. No longer will I use the “popcorn oil” (which by the way will no longer be in my pantry) and butter. Absolutely,…Barb H

I have been using the sunflower oil to replace other oils I used to use in baking and cooking. I use it in place of olive oil which I have used in making my own salad dressing. I also love it for frying fish and just yesterday I used it in place of butter on my sweet corn. I usually use a lot of butter on my sweet corn but thought I would try the oil and I really loved it. I am sold on this product.Carol Wedin

Awesome oil! Last night I prepared fresh Coho Salmon fillets with salt, pepper, dill and Smude Sunflower oil instead of olive oil. Unbelievable! Making same recipe again tonight. Also, sautéed mushroom spinach omelet this morning using Smude Sunflower oil instead of Olive Oil and again wonderful. So, today, I went out and bought a gallon at the Crow Wing Food Coop.Jeff

My husband is an avid hunter so I prepare a lot of wild game meals for him. This past week I fried deer chops in Smude Sunflower Oil. As he was eating them he asked me what I had done differently with them from previous times. I told him they were prepared with Smude Sunflower Oil. He then told me they were the best deer chops he has ever eaten, and believe me, he has eaten a lot over his lifetime. Coming from him I took that as a great compliment and will continue using this oil forever. It…Mary F

Using Smude Sunflower Oil is awsome. My husband and I use it instead of Extra Virgin Olive Oil or Conola Oil. I use it in baking and frying. I have dry skin and I am over 45. I use it every morning on my face. My granddaughter has dryer skin. So after her bath I put it on her and it seems to do the trick. You will love it!Sheila B

Over the past few months I have been helping to SPREAD THE HEALTH by passing out samples of popcorn popped in the SMUDE SUNFLOWER OIL & lightly salted w/sea salt, at local Health Fairs, Farmers’ Markets etc. Each time I am overwhelmed with the response I am getting. Everyone absolutely loves the flavor and can’t believe I haven’t used butter. It excites everyone to know they can now thoroughly enjoy this light healthy snack and not feel a bit guilty. They become repeat…JoAnne
