Cold-pressed milk thistle oil carries a gentle, nutty, slightly earthy seed flavor with a smooth mouthfeel. It's more aromatic than refined sunflower or rapeseed oil (which are nearly tasteless), but less intense than toasted sesame oil or extra virgin olive oil with strong peppery notes.
The flavor is clean enough to work in both savory and mildly sweet applications — try it over steamed vegetables, mixed into yogurt with herbs, or blended into a vinaigrette with lemon juice and mustard. Because it's unrefined, you'll taste the actual seed character, which varies slightly between harvests.
If you prefer neutral oils for baking or high-heat cooking, keep a refined oil on hand for those tasks and use this one as a finishing touch where its flavor adds something extra.
