About Our Bulk Raw Sunflower Seeds
Did you know that sunflower seeds are harvested from the head of the sunflower plant? The head of a sunflower plant measures more than 12 inches in diameter and can contain up to 2,000 seeds.
This small, beige-colored kernel has a mild, nutty flavor with a chewy texture. They’re a significant source of protein, vitamin E, and vitamin B6. Specifically, sunflower seeds are also high in minerals such as selenium, manganese, copper, and zinc.
Raw Sunflower Seeds Uses
- Sunflower seeds are eaten independently but can be found in bread, bagels, and other baked goods.
- Sunflower seeds are perfect in trail mix, cereal, and granola bars and are a great source of nutrition when hiking or on the go.
- Add Sunflower Seeds to fresh garden salads or pasta dishes for a healthy crunch.
Bulk Raw Sunflower Seeds Storage
Always keep sunflower seeds in an airtight container in a cool and dry area. This will maintain the seeds’ shelf life of 2 to 3 months. You could also store them in an airtight container inside your fridge or freezer. By doing so, seeds can last for up to 1 year. Certainly, we recommend keeping sunflower seeds in a refrigerator or the freezer for optimal freshness.
Nutrients
Sunflower seeds are a significant source of protein, dietary fiber, and monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats.
