Information for hazelnut oil in our free cooking ingredients collection.
This delicious oil tastes like the nut it was pressed from and has a rich, strong flavor. Most hazelnut oil is imported from France, but it is easily found in most food stores. One caution: it can be fairly expensive. Hazelnut oil contains mostly monounsaturated fat.
How to cook hazelnut oil
Although it can be stored at room temperature, hazelnut oil lasts longer when kept refrigerated. Because it has a strong flavor, it is often combined with other, lighter oils. It also has a low smoke point, so it is not used for cooking.
Serving suggestions
Hazelnut oil is excellent in salad dressing, drizzled over vegetables, and in cakes and pastries. It is also an unusual but pleasant addition to sauces.
