What it is

Safflower oil is a cooking oil pressed from the seeds of the safflower plant. The seeds are typically dried, dehulled, and then pressed to extract the oil. The oil is then refined to remove impurities and improve its stability and flavor.

Why it's used

Safflower oil is used as a cooking oil and as an ingredient in salad dressings, mayonnaise, and baked goods. Its high smoke point makes it suitable for frying and sautéing. It is also used in some processed foods as a source of unsaturated fats.

Health notes

Safflower oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats, which are considered healthier fat choices than saturated fats. The World Health Organization (WHO) and other health bodies recommend limiting saturated and trans fats in the diet, and replacing them with unsaturated fats like those found in safflower oil.

Allergen info

Safflower oil is not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. It is also gluten-free.
