For too long, frying has meant reaching for sunflower or canola — neutral oils with little character, chosen because they're cheap and tolerate heat. We think there's a better daily choice.
HANAHANIM Pomace Oil No. 35.1 is built for the way you actually cook. It's a refined olive pomace oil from the Izmir and Manisa regions of Türkiye, blended with 5% extra virgin olive oil for character and color. Light in flavor. Neutral on the palate. A high smoke point that handles everything from a hot pan to a deep fryer.
In short — it's everything sunflower oil does, made from olives instead.
Why pomace oil instead of sunflower
Pomace oil is the everyday cooking oil of Mediterranean kitchens. Lighter than extra virgin, more affordable, and built for heat — it's what restaurants across Türkiye, Greece, Spain, and Italy actually use for frying. It carries the heritage of olive oil without the price tag (or the pronounced flavor) of extra virgin.
Sunflower oil is fine. But you can do better, and your food will taste cleaner for it.
How to use it
- Deep-frying — chips, fritters, calamari, samosas, falafel
- Pan-frying — fish, chicken, eggs, halloumi
- Sautéing — onions, garlic, vegetables, base for sauces
- Roasting — vegetables, meats, potatoes
- Baking — cakes, breads, pastries where a neutral oil is needed
For dressings, drizzling, or finishing dishes raw, we recommend our Extra Virgin Olive Oil No. 35.1 instead — pomace oil belongs in the pan, not on the plate!

Frequently asked questions
Where do HANAHANIM olive oils come from?
Our extra virgin olive oils come from carefully selected estates in Türkiye (the İzmir and Manisa regions, the heart of the Turkish Aegean) and Crete (known in Türkiye as Girit). Each tin is labeled with a number that identifies its specific region of origin — for example, 35.1 means İzmir, supplier 1, while 30.28.1 means Greece, Crete, supplier 1. Read more on Our Numbers.
What is the difference between extra virgin olive oil and olive pomace oil?
Extra virgin olive oil is the highest grade of olive oil — extracted from fresh olives using only mechanical means, with no heat treatment or chemical extraction, and an acidity below 0.8% as oleic acid (per GSO 1019:2022). It is best used as a finishing oil, in dressings, or for low-heat cooking.
Olive pomace oil is made from the residue left after extra virgin olive oil is pressed. It is refined and blended with a small percentage of extra virgin olive oil for character. It has a higher smoke point (~220–240°C), making it ideal for frying, sautéing, and roasting — a smarter alternative to sunflower or canola oil.
How should I store olive oil after opening?
Olive oil has three enemies: heat, light, and air. After opening, store your HANAHANIM tin in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight — a closed pantry, cupboard, or shelf away from the stove. The original metal tin is designed to protect the oil from light; keep it sealed when not in use. At typical indoor temperatures (around 22–24°C), an opened tin will keep its quality for several months. If you decant into a smaller bottle for daily use, choose dark glass and keep it tightly sealed.
How do I read the number on my HANAHANIM tin?
Every HANAHANIM tin carries a number tied to where the oil came from. For Turkish products, the number uses the official Turkish vehicle license plate code: 17 is Çanakkale (our family farm), 35 is İzmir, and so on. For Cretan products, we use the country code of Greece (30) plus the city code for Crete (28). The final number identifies the specific supplier from that region.
