igourmet 8-oz. J. Leblanc Pecan Nut Oil
The story of J. Leblanc nut oils is the sort P.R. firms love to invent. But there's nothing "invented" here. In fact, Huilerie J. Leblanc has changed little since 1878, the year it was founded. It is still run by a Leblanc-Jean-Charles. It is still located in the southern most village of Burgundy, Iguerande near the Troisgros restaurant in Roanne, France. And most importantly, it still manufactures the highest quality, small-batch, hand-crafted nut oils in France...if not, the world. Nut oils are often referred to as "seasoning oils". Because of their low smoke point, they are not generally used for cooking, but rather to finish dishes. You will nonetheless find recipes written by wonderful and knowledgeable chefs using nut oils for sautéing, dressings and marinades.Leblanc s pecan oil has a full, robust pecan flavor suitable for salads, baked goods, drizzled on veggies, marinades, or for finishing fish or poultry.Refrigerate after opening to extend the shelf life of this wonderful product.
