Are camelina and flax the same thing? No, camelina and flax are not the same. While linseed oil is extracted from flax and has a rather bitter taste, camelina oil comes from the Camelina plant, which belongs to the cruciferous family. Camelina oil has a mild, nutty, cabbage-like taste that goes well with salads, soups and many other dishes.
