Is anise oil a vegetable oil?

Anise oil is not a vegetable oil. It is an essential oil derived from the seeds of the anise plant (Pimpinella anisum), a member of the parsley family. Vegetable oils are extracted from plants' seeds, nuts, or kernels and are primarily composed of triglycerides, while essential oils are concentrated, volatile aromatic compounds obtained from plant materials like flowers, leaves, and seeds.
