Sea buckthorn oil at home

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   Prepare the ingredients for sea buckthorn oil. The most important thing is to find good raw materials, that is, sea buckthorn, grown in ecologically clean areas. Sea buckthorn should be sorted, damaged and rotten berries should be removed, washed thoroughly under running water. Let the berries dry, sprinkling on a paper towel. It is better to use natural olive oil as an oil base. There are several ways to prepare sea buckthorn oil at home

   It is made from sea buckthorn seeds, from cake, from fresh berries, from juice or by hot method by heating. One of the easiest ways is to prepare oil from sea buckthorn cake. Using a juicer or a manual pusher, we squeeze out the juice from sea buckthorn berries. Juice for cooking oil is not needed. It can be used to prepare other dishes, fruit drinks, desserts, sauces.

   We put the cake in a deep dish, in no case can we use metal, glass is best. Fill the cake with base oil, for example, olive oil. There should be two parts of oil for three parts of the cake. Cover the container with the oil preparation with a lid, leaving a small crack. We put it in a dark place at room temperature for one week.

And we fill it with oil already infused on the first cake. we also keep it for a week in a dark, warm place.
