What it is

Dillweed oil is an essential oil extracted from the dill plant (Anethum graveolens). It is obtained through steam distillation of the dill plant's leaves, stems, and seeds. The resulting oil is clear to pale yellow and has a strong, fresh dill aroma and flavor.

Why it's used

Dillweed oil is primarily used as a flavoring agent in food products. It imparts the characteristic taste of dill to a wide range of foods. Common applications include pickles, olives, relishes, salad dressings, sauces, and marinades.

Health notes

Dillweed oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a flavoring agent. It is used in small amounts in food, and no adverse health effects are expected at typical consumption levels. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated dill and its derivatives, but no specific numeric limits are typically set for flavoring oils used in food. Evidence does not suggest significant health concerns associated with its use as a food flavoring.

Allergen info

Dillweed oil is not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
