Is it safe to use lavender essential oil in cooking?

I saw it in a recipe used in a newspaper, but I don't know if you have to use it in a special way.





Is it safe to use lavender essential oil (the pure stuff, obviously) in cooking?





I know that lavender and tea tree are the only ones you can apply neat.Is it safe to use lavender essential oil in cooking?
You can use essential oils in cooking. If you have a recipe I would suggest that you follow it for the essential oil in question. I use essential oils in cold dishes and salad dressings. If you want to add essential oils to cooked dishes, they need to be added at the end when you have taken the pan off the heat. Baked items are treated differently.





Lavender and Tea Tree aren't the only essential oils that can be used neat. Additionally, not all Lavender should be used neat. There are many species and cultivars of Lavender, some are chemically irritating and should be avoided if you intend to use them directly on the skin. Officinalis and angustifolia are OK to use neat.Is it safe to use lavender essential oil in cooking?
There are a number of different lavender plants. Some are used exclusively for cooking and some exclusively for ';pest control';.





The essential oils may be ok for cooking, but I would look for those that are from the ';food'; lavender extraction.





I have a very lovely friend who has a lavender farm. They are extracting the oils from different lavender plants and experimenting with how to use them. She gave me some ';lavender brown sugar'; to sprinkle on foods. It has lavender heads all through it. Such a treat!!!
Yes, it is safe to cook with essential oils as long as it's a pure one. But seldom people use lavender for cooking. I know some of them would.





Most of the oil they used for cooking are lemon oil, oregano oil and ginger oil.





check this site for the recipe.
Yes it is safe. It only requires a little bit though. I have used lavender, oregano, ginger,and several other EOs for cooking.
if you think that sounds nice then yes ok then!!
