Is the olive oil cold-pressed?
Many of them are, and it is stated on the product page where it applies. Cold-pressed oils are extracted without heat, which keeps more flavour and aroma - better for dressings and finishing than for high-heat frying.
How should I store herbs and spices?
Sealed, cool and dark - a cupboard rather than a shelf above the hob. Heat and daylight are what strip the aroma out of them.
Are the tins BPA-free?
Several of our suppliers have moved to BPA-free linings and say so on the pack, though it is not universal. Check the product page or ring us on 01323 928523 and we will confirm against the current batch.
What is the difference between organic and natural?
Organic is a certified legal standard with an named certifier on the pack. Natural is not regulated in the same way and can mean very little. If it matters to you, look for the certification mark rather than the adjective.
