“I give you the best oil!” Taiwan’s love of 100% Australian auzure Canola Oil.

March 3, 2021

It’s lunchtime on a steamy Taipei Wednesday as some of Taiwan’s top restauranteurs and food influencers gather at the well-known 樂子 The Diner to learn about the Australian Non-GM expeller pressed canola oil auzure that is quickly becoming the oil of choice in kitchens of the city’s eateries. The Diner has been serving hearty western meals at four locations in Taiwan since 2006. In 2018, it switched to the Australian canola oil auzure – made by MSM Milling in Central Western New South Wales – making it the first Taiwanese restaurant to adopt the healthier Non-GM oil with a long frying life in all its kitchens. Owners of The Diner Amy and Dean Tu swear by auzure, using it for all the sauces, marinades as well as stir, shallow and deep frying in their kitchens. In addition, they sell the retail bottles so their customers can take home the healthy Australian oil they trust in their restaurants. Their menu proudly displays the top eight ingredients and brands they trust: all have a strong provenance link.

“We focus on using the best ingredients in all our cooking. As more and more customers are aware of the important role our cooking oil plays in all our meals, we needed to find a healthy oil that performed well in the kitchen and produced crispy golden foods. auzure does not smoke like the other oils we have used so our chefs are very happy. We’ve changed the menu to highlight our choice of oil so all our customers can see we care about providing them the best food possible cooking in the best oil,” she said.

The Taiwanese distributors of auzure, Young Sol Life, have taken over The Diner to host the lunchtime feast and seminar to explain what makes auzure different, its unique expeller pressed properties and the results of a new independent Australian University study which has found that auzure outperforms other Australian canola oils. The study, undertaken by the Australian Research Council Industrial Transformational Training Centre for Function Grains at Charles Sturt University, compared expeller pressed auzure canola oil to canola oil from two other Australian processors to examine the impact of different processing techniques on the frying life of the oil. The findings confirmed that processing methods greatly influence the frying life of canola oil, with the expeller pressed auzure oil outperforming oil that was processed using other techniques including solvent, or hexane extraction.

Not only did auzure record the longest frying life, it also outperformed the other oils with tocopherol retention and antioxidant activity. Charles Sturt University post-doctoral researcher, Dr Randy Adjonu, found that auzure expeller pressed oil lasts up to 30 per cent longer than oil produced by other Australian processers. Dr Adjonu’s study compared the performance of the oils by frying potato chips for 36 to 38 cycles, until the limit of Total Polar Materials (TPM) was reached. TPM is the international index for determining the quality and safety of frying oils.

“The more times you can use the oil without compromising the quality, increases its value for money,” Dr Adjonu said.

Director of MSM Milling, Bob Mac Smith, says the independent research cements the findings of in-house research at MSM Milling.

“As part of our on-going quality testing, we regularly conduct controlled frying trials which repeatedly show our oil lasts longer than oil producers by other processors. This university study, which has now been published in the journal ‘Foods’, and presented to the 2020 World Congress on Oils and Fats, substantiates and gives credence to our findings that auzure canola oil is more stable and has a longer frying life than other Australian produced canola oil.”

“Essentially what it means for our customers is that our oil can be used for longer than other canola oils without compromising health and taste properties. Bottom line, our oil is more cost effective for customers,” Mr Mac Smith said.

Back in Taipei, Amy and Dean are busy serving the invited guests a lunchtime feast of their most popular meals crafted with auzure. Influencers are busy livestreaming the event and sharing the benefits and qualities of the Australian expeller pressed auzure oil with their thousands of followers. Fittingly, Amy and Dean have adopted the catchphrase “I give you the best oil” to accompany all promotion of auzure. A claim that has solid independent backing.

What does expeller pressed mean? Expeller pressing differs vastly from the common international practice of using chemical or solvent extraction to take oil from canola seeds. Expeller pressing mechanically squeezes the canola oil from the seeds, without the use of chemicals.

The result is beautiful auzure – a clean pressed oil made without chemical solvents.

Partnership provides 85 million meals to Australians in need

October 22, 2020

Foodbank

Australian family-owned agribusinesses, Manildra Group and MSM Milling, have marked a unique partnership with food producers Simplot and Rinoldi, and leading Food relief organization, Foodbank Australia, resulting in 85 million meals donated to Aussies in need.

The Australian businesses have donated flour since 2004 as well as oil and sugar since 2009 to manufacturers Rinoldi and Simplot, as part of Foodbank’s vital collaborative food supply programs.

Manildra Group and MSM Milling source wheat and canola from local farmers, handle the milling and consolidation locally and help people across Australia, including in the Central West of NSW, with finished products distributed via the Foodbank network of front-line charities.

Manildra Group’s flour is donated to Rinoldi which produces pasta specifically for Foodbank to distribute across Australia. MSM Milling’s auzure canola oil and Sunshine Sugar are donated to Simplot to produce Leggo’s Napoletana Pasta Sauce.

The Manager of Manildra Flour Mill, John Brunner, says each year Manildra’s flour donation delivers five million serves of pasta to Australians experiencing all types of hardships.

“Now, more than ever the Foodbank Pasta Program is invaluable to those Australians who need it most. Australians who were struggling to get enough food before COVID-19 are now going hungry more often, with 43 per cent going a day a week without eating. As an Australian-owned family business we’re proud to step up and donate 350 tonnes of locally milled flour and 12 tonnes of sugar to this vital program to help vulnerable Australians in need. Our partnership with Foodbank is now in its 16th year, and it’s heartwarming to be part of a program that provides millions of serves of pasta for food relief activities, as well as natural disasters,” said Mr Brunner.
MSM Milling’s expeller pressed, Non-GM canola oil is a vital ingredient in the 250-thousand jars of Leggo’s Napoletana pasta sauce made for the partnership each year, delivering almost a million serves of sauce to Australians. Director Bob Mac Smith says the company is honoured to play an essential part in a program that alleviates food insecurity in local communities.

“Every year for the last 12 years MSM Milling has proudly donated thousands of litres of canola oil to this valuable program to ensure such a versatile pantry staple is made available to those who most need it. We’re a family business and the team is proud and humbled to donate oil to the program and see the difference it makes to everyday Australians, including those in our own backyard,” he said.

“This year has really highlighted the vital importance of Australian businesses supporting local farmers, manufacturers, organisations and other Australian businesses. We’re standing in the canola today which will be expeller pressed in a few weeks at our presses a stone’s throw from here. It truly is a unique partnership that highlights what can be achieved when suppliers and food manufacturers come together to collectively benefit Australian communities, from farmers, local businesses and our most vulnerable. It’s extremely humbling to be involved in this,” said Mr Mac Smith.

Foodbank National Program Manager – Agriculture, Jacqui Payne added, “We are extremely grateful for Manildra Group and MSM Milling’s dedication to our cause and ongoing involvement in our vital programs. Our Collaborative Supply Programs are a world-leading and globally unique model for food relief, and we’re delighted to have proud Australian businesses like Manildra Group and MSM Milling playing such major roles. They understand the importance of Foodbank being able to make these pantry essentials available to families from all regions and all walks of life who are doing it tough right now. Put simply, if we did not receive this support, families and individuals across Australia would be going without.”

low carbon canola oil

Our auzure Canola Oil featured on ABC TV’s Landline program in July 2020 as part of the national broadcaster’s coverage of the development of an Australian Bioenergy roadmap.

MSM Milling’s $5.38 million biomass-fuelled boiler uses locally sourced renewable wood waste, forestry thinnings and sawmill by-products to generate steam needed for canola processing.

auzure is the first low carbon expeller pressed canola oil in Australia, making MSM Milling’s biomass boiler development a cornerstone project for the Australian food processing industry. The development not only reduces our carbon footprint, thermal energy costs, greenhouse emissions and fossil fuel energy use, it enables us to deliver the low carbon products our customers demand.
