Description
A natural, colorless drying oil pressed from the nuts of a Walnut tree, Juglans regia. Walnuts contain approximately 65% oil. The cold-pressed oil is pale yellow while the hot-pressed oil has a green tinge. Walnut oil dries slower and yellows less than Linseed oil, but it dries faster than Poppy seed oil. It was popular as a paint medium in Italy, the Netherlands, and Germany. Walnut oil will turn rancid and develop a strong odor on storage.
Synonyms and Related Terms
nut oil; aceite de nueces (Esp.); huile de noix (Fr.); olio di noce (It)
Risks
Turns rancid and develops a strong odor on storage.
