Pistachio oil, strongly flavored oil, particularly for use in salads.[20]
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pistachio oil is a pressed oil, extracted from the fruit of Pistacia vera, the pistachio nut. Compared to other nut oils, it has a particularly strong flavor. Like other nut oils, it tastes similar to the nut from which it is extracted. Pistachio oil is high in Vitamin E, containing 19mg/100g. It contains 12.7% saturated fats, 53.8% monounsaturated fats, 32.7% linoleic acid, and 0.8% omega-3 fatty acid.[1] It is also used in skin care products.

It does take a little work to be a vegetarian but it's so worth it, oh it's so worth it!
