Toasted Sesame Oil
Toasted sesame oil is a dark brown oil with a strong aroma and flavor of toasted sesame seeds. Our oil is made from carefully toasted whole sesame seeds. Our oil is expeller pressed, and it is not refined. Toasted sesame oil is a very stable oil due to its strong antioxidant activity and the sesame lignans modification during the toasting of the seed.
