In addition to the oil production, safflower oil is also used as a cooking oil. Although it is more expensive than other options, it handles higher temperatures than other common cooking oils.
Safflower Oil is also used in the industrial sector as a drying oil that is used in the manufacturing of paints and stains and linoleum tile.
The meal that is left over after the oil has been pressed is used in livestock feed; specifically for cows.
The petals of the Safflower plant can be used in cooking as a substitute for saffron. It provides much of the same flavor and color as the more expensive saffron and has become a popular additive in its own right. The petals can be soaked in water to create a tea which is consumable by itself or made into an extract to be used in cooking. The oil can be used directly on the skin for its moisturizing benefits.
Safflower oil can be used in cooking both for deep frying and for salad dressing and marinades. Safflower oil can be used as a nutritional supplement, but its most common use is for cooking.
