Walnuts (Juglans regia) originate in Asia Minor and Greece. Walnut oil is extracted from the fruit of the walnut tree, which contains 50 to 70% oil.
Walnut oil has interesting dietary properties thanks to its levels of alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3), which is too rare in today’s diets. Used in seasoning to flavor your dishes and salads, it helps to fill in the gap.
