About linseed oil

Linseed oil is produced by pressing oil from linseed (flaxseed). This oil is cold-pressed and unrefined, meaning it is extracted without heat or chemical processing.

Because it is unrefined, linseed oil has a distinct flavour and retains the natural characteristics of the seed. It is typically used in small quantities and is not suited to high-heat cooking. Instead, it is used in dressings, drizzled over food or incorporated into recipes where heat is minimal.
