About Huile de lin

Huile de lin is oil pressed from flax seeds. It is usually a clear, pale yellow to golden liquid, with a mild, nutty or grassy flavour in fresh, unrefined forms. It is distinct from whole flaxseed and from oils sold for paints or other technical uses.

Edible versions are used in dressings and other preparations that do not require high-heat cooking. Products may be cold-pressed, refined, blended, or sold for non-food purposes, so the label is important. Flavoured or fortified versions also differ from plain flaxseed oil.
