Homemade Black Seed Oil

Having had a very good spread of Nigella flowers this year, thought I’d try making cold pressed black seed oil. Crushed the seeds, put them in coconut oil and let it sit for a few weeks, stirring every day or so. Then strained and put in tincture bottles. I have another lot of seeds to do and have to try it out still, but it’s a start.
