Frequently Asked Questions

Crystolia is a food oil brand specializing in quality cooking oils — primarily canola oil and sunflower oil — supplied to restaurants, catering businesses, the food industry, retailers and private customers. The brand operates in Hebrew, English and Russian.

Crystolia offers two main product lines: Crystolia canola oil and Crystolia sunflower oil. Both are available in 0.9-liter bottles for home use and 5-liter formats for restaurants, catering and food businesses.

Canola oil is a refined vegetable oil pressed from rapeseed varieties bred to be low in erucic acid. It has a light, neutral taste, a high smoke point suitable for everyday cooking, and is naturally low in saturated fat compared to many other cooking fats.

Thanks to its neutral flavor, canola oil is highly versatile: light frying, sautéing, baking, sauces, marinades and salad dressings. It lets the flavor of the dish come through without adding a taste of its own.

Sunflower oil has a mild flavor and performs well at typical frying temperatures. It is a kitchen staple for frying schnitzel and vegetables, deep frying, baking and general everyday cooking.

Both are refined, neutral cooking oils suitable for everyday use. Canola oil is slightly lower in saturated fat and has a particularly clean, neutral profile, while sunflower oil has a light golden color and a mild taste many cooks prefer for frying. In most recipes they can be used interchangeably.

Yes. Both refined canola oil and refined sunflower oil have smoke points suitable for standard deep-frying temperatures (typically 160–180°C). For best results, keep the oil at a stable temperature, filter it between uses and replace it regularly.

Yes. Neutral oils like canola and sunflower are excellent for baking — cakes, muffins and doughs — because they add moisture without affecting the flavor of the final product.

Crystolia canola oil and sunflower oil come in 0.9-liter bottles, ideal for households, and 5-liter containers designed for restaurants, catering operations, institutional kitchens and large families.

Store cooking oil in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat sources such as the stove. Keep the cap tightly closed after each use. Properly stored, an unopened bottle keeps its quality until the best-before date marked on the packaging.

Once opened, refined canola or sunflower oil is best used within a few months. Keep it tightly closed in a cool, dark cabinet. If the oil develops an off smell, a sharp taste or visible cloudiness at room temperature, replace it.

At low temperatures, natural components of vegetable oil can crystallize and make it look cloudy. This is a physical reaction, not a defect — the oil returns to clear at room temperature and remains safe to use.

In home cooking, oil can usually be reused a few times if it was not overheated: strain it after cooling, store it closed and away from light, and discard it once it darkens, foams or smells off. Professional kitchens should follow their regulatory and food-safety guidelines for oil replacement.

Crystolia delivers nationwide. Delivery schedules are agreed in advance, and business customers can set up regular recurring supply so the kitchen or shelf never runs empty.

Quality control is applied across the entire supply chain — from the source, through import and storage, to final delivery. Every batch is checked against the brand's specification for purity, color, taste and freshness.

Crystolia works directly with the source and imports its oils under strict quality control. Direct sourcing shortens the supply chain, which improves both quality control and pricing for our customers.

Canola oil is naturally low in saturated fat and contains unsaturated fats, including omega-3 alpha-linolenic acid, which is why health authorities in many countries consider it a good everyday cooking oil as part of a balanced diet. For personal dietary advice, consult a qualified professional.

Crystolia operates in three languages: Hebrew, English and Russian. The website, product information and customer service are available in all three.
