SMAKRIK – organic drops of Sweden
The SMAKRIK series of 100% organic canola oils is a new addition to our organic IKEA food range. The oils are produced in the heart of Österlen in the province of Skåne.
Traditional farming...
The Swedish farmers that contribute to SMAKRIK oils follow strict ecological guidelines. No synthetic pesticides or fertilizers are sprayed on the fields – much to the joy of bees and other insects that gladly help with pollination in return. Besides preserving biodiversity, organic farming helps to maintain soil health too.
...and modern flavors
SMAKRIK is a versatile and truly Swedish series of neutral, naturally nutty or gently flavored oils. All with different qualities and characteristics. The neutral, pressed oil is really good for making mayonnaise. The butter-flavored one can be used instead of butter when baking. The cold-pressed oil with dill flavor is great to sprinkle over salmon before it’s served. The thyme and the wild garlic flavors fit perfectly with meat, just before it’s taken off the grill. Or as a last touch on top of soup.
No chemicals are used when extracting the oils from the seeds in the SMAKRIK canola oil production."
