Ferme Pré Rieur: Organic & Nutritious Ingredients
For healthier and more eco-friendly cooking ingredients, think about Ferme Pré Rieur inc., located in St-Jean-Port-Joli, Quebec. Its producers/suppliers located in Côte-du-Sud, Beauce and Lotbinière, will make you discover beautiful sunflower fields. It processes and markets under the brand name Le Pré Rieur: organic oleic sunflower oil, peas, and grain products all Ecocert Canada certified.
ORGANIC OLEIC SUNFLOWER OIL
The oleic sunflower is nothing like the classic sunflower. It provides a much superior oil. Organic and non-GMO sunflower seeds are grown without any pesticides. The extraction of sunflower oil to make a high-end oil by cold pressing the flower is a mechanical process without heat and solvent, carried out just before putting it on the market, which gives it an exceptional taste of freshness. These conditions allow the nutritional values of sunflower oil to be fully maintained. Rich in Omega 9 (81.63%), its high thermal resistance (16.31 consecutive hours at 110 degrees Celsius in the laboratory), and its very delicate taste, give it a great cooking versatility at high temperatures (without risking oxidizing it) while offering many delicious options when used cold. With this oil on the menu, Quebec’s local food is gaining prestige.
Gourmet tips
This oil is easy to digest and is even more versatile than olive oil and contains up to half as much saturated fat. Its exquisite taste (sweet flavour of freshly shelled sunflower seeds) allows for salty or sweet culinary creations, which more bitter, pungent or astringent oils do not offer. So, here are some suggestions to lend a delicate flavour to your dishes, improve smoothness while adding a touch of sun and health to your menu:
- Cold: dressings, marinades, mayonnaises.
- On the stove: braising, browning, roasting, simmering.
- Baking: bakery and pastry products (muffins, pie dough, cakes, cookies).
Cosmetics field
Its high level of vitamin E (33%) also favours its use in the cosmetics and soap industry. Very soon, the company will jointly launch with Culture Sauvage a by-product named, Sunflower Okara, to add exfoliants in cosmetics and soaps; it will be one of the few products of plants and organic origin for these markets. Stay tuned!
Formats : 500 ml, 1 L, 5 L & 20 L
WHOLE YELLOW PEAS (ORGANIC)
The Ferme Pré Rieur also specializes in another product which is also very rare in Quebec. Organic whole yellow peas are rich in fibre, protein, and nutrients, thus responding to a trend in favour of plant-based protein. What’s better than a traditional pea soup or having peas served in salads?
Formats : 1 kg, 5 kg, 10 kg & 20 kg
YELLOW PEA FLOUR
Besides being good for your health (high source of iron, fibre, and potassium), this flour is one of the most proteined on the market. Practical and versatile, Le Pré Rieur organic yellow pea flour gives a roasted taste that goes well with coffee, chocolate, and hazelnuts. In combination with sugar and vanilla, it is exquisite and at the same time allows to subtly add legumes to the menu.
Use this flour to add texture and flavour to your recipes and make them more nutritious. It replaces 50% of wheat flour or other flour with gluten (wheat, spelt, oats, corn).
Formats : 500 g, 1 kg, 5 kg & 20 kg
