Description of Dillweed Oil
Steam-distilled from the partially dried leaves of the Anethum graveolens herb, Dillweed Oil is produced commercially throughout much of Eastern Europe and the United States. The most common application of this oil is within seasoning blends for meat, fish, soups, and especially pickled vegetables. Dillweed oil, sometimes referred to as “Dill Herb” or “Dill Weed,” is also used in perfumery, where it can provide its incredibly potent and fresh sweet-spicy top note to herbal fragrance accords. Dill blends particularly well with ingredients such as caraway, mint, and citrus.
Aroma & Flavor of Dillweed Oil
Powerful and fresh, with a spicy nutmeg-like odor. In flavor applications, the taste is warm and peppery but retains a pleasant, faintly anise-like undertone.
