Pine Nut Oil

Pine Nut Oil is cold pressed from the edible seeds of pine trees, primarily Pinus sibirica. It tastes mildly sweet and faintly resinous with a soft nutty body, close to the flavour of a raw pine nut itself, and it pours a pale gold with a rich, slippery texture.

Cold pressing crushes the seeds without heat, which keeps the delicate nut flavour that warmth would otherwise drive off.

How to use it

Use it as a finishing oil rather than a cooking oil: dress salads, drizzle it over soups, pasta or roasted vegetables, or stir it through a dip. It is also used in skincare formulations and in hair care products, where its rich texture adds shine. Technique tip: never heat it in a pan, as the nutty note breaks down quickly and turns flat.
