How to spot an Austrian abroad: Green oil in our veins

Pumpkin Seed Oil Press Review

Sweden Sweden | The Local AT

Whenever I invite friends over for dinner I make sure to serve a side salad, Austrian style. Whatever vegetables I use, the salad is always dressed with a dark green substance which usually elicits a sceptical look from my guest. The secret is pumpkin seed oil from Styria.

Greem Pumpkin Seed Oil in Austrian Veins
In Styria (the regional capital is Graz), people even drink shots of this green power liquid because of its healthy polyunsaturated fatty acids. It's made of roasted and pressed pumpkin seeds and adds a delicious nutty flavour to salads, soups and even vanilla ice cream. Of all the Austrians I know abroad, most have a bottle of Austrian pumpkin seed oil in their fridge.
