how are seeds roasted? Are they tossed in an oil first? if yes, what oil? Thank you.

I don't believe they were tossed into Oil. they appear just to be baked with no seasoning or salt.

I don't remember, I don't think there was oil as I bought them for my guinea pigs.

I toss them with a good olive oil, sprinkle with salt and bake in a 350 degree oven for about 20 minutes. Since ovens vary, I'd watch so they don't burn.

I've eaten them and no longer have the bag oh course. As I recall they are dry roasted - no oil and I don't believe any salt either.

I see what you mean about it being hard to tell by the description. There is no labeling on the container that is any help, either. As you know, this product shows under the searches for both raw and unsalted nuts. I assumed tbey were roasted when I puechased them. Peanut oil is listed as an ingredient, which would lead me to believe that they are roasted. It seems they would be kind of greasy if they were raw and had oil in them. They also seem somewhat more crunchy than raw nuts, to me, anyway. Hope this helps.

hi. the beans are not oily at all. they are perfectly roasted. oily is a misconception that oily is the freshest bean, but it can be quite the opposite. depending on what type of machine you have the Lavazza beans are the best. We have a Gaggia Titanium and all other beans get stuck/clogged. hope this helps.

Hello and thank you for asking... Our Raw Spanish Peanuts are exactly as they appear in the image provided. Shelled, Raw. Not Roasted, Not Salted and No Shells. We do carry Peanuts in the Shell, however, they are provided under a different item number and the image would show the shell. Thanks !

I've oven roasted it (homemade granola) and put it in yogurt, it was great. If you are going to mix it without cooking it in any form then you will want to let it sit for an hour or so (plus, straight uncooked is going to be pretty intense on your guts). I usually microwave a cup of it if in a hurry and mix with yogurt.

My guess is seeds are toasted before extracting oil. There is a smoky taste to the oil.

I use peanut oil...only because oliveoil is so expensive...cant imagine why you couldn't use oliveoil. I drain it thru coffee filters and put it back in bottle for air tight seal till next time use. olive oil does smell gamey after a few uses so maybe that's why.

I do not know if they are roasted or not, they are good and they have been very lightly salted. I have ordered at least 12 times and find them very enjoyable.

Does linseed oil have any sort of odor/smell while wet or after drying? Also, I have heard that the flaxseed oil you can find in stores will not fully polymerize but turn rancid overtime. How is this different? Thank you!

Dear Fkong, this is a follow-up message. Sesame seeds are too moist and oily. The grinder gums up. After I cleaned it I got the idea to toast the sesame seeds first, but I don't think that will work either. Hope this helps.I haven't tried sesame seeds, but I did try cumin seeds yesterday. I could try sesame seed tomorrow and let you know.

I haven't had much success using raw almonds, but when I roasted them in the oven for a few minutes, my results were much better. I don't add any additional oil.

You are probably using dark beans. Put the beans on a paper towel for a couple hours so the oils will be dried. That usually does the trick for me.

No - they are not roasted. I've eaten them for years and enjoy them very much.

I've always used exclusively black oil sunflower seeds. Quite a variety of colorful song birds seem to love it. I also think it is the least expense. I buy a 50 pound bag usually about once a year.

Whole flaxseeds don't go rancid, and they keep amazingly well with very little effort. Once the shell is cracked, however, the oil within them will quickly go rancid. I've been buying flaxseeds in bulk for years. I don't worry about air tight containers, nor keeping them cool (although the latter can't hurt). Mostly, you want to keep them dry and away from pests (e.g. rodents, insects, etc.) I keep them in their original bag, with the top rolled down and a bungee cord to keep it in place. It wouldn't hurt to freeze the seeds to kill any insect eggs, but i've never had a problem so i don't usually bother to do this.

I doubt they are treated. They are the freshest seeds with natural oils. I have been happy with them. Try a 4 pound bag.

I haven't tried using less oil, but neither my daughter or I have found the bread to be oily at all, so we are wondering what kind of oil you used. I always use canola oil. I also use a bread maker, so I don't have to grease a bread pan. That could also be a problem. One time I messed up a loaf by buttering the top like I always used to do with the wheat bread I used to make before going gluten free. Bad idea!
