Toasted Sesame Oil

Toasted sesame oil is pressed from roasted sesame seeds, which gives it a deep amber colour and a rich, nutty aroma. It is a finishing and flavouring oil rather than a cooking oil: a little goes a long way.

Drizzle it over steamed vegetables, noodles or rice at the end of cooking, whisk it into dressings and marinades, or add a few drops to a stir-fry just before serving. Keep the bottle capped in a cool, dark cupboard so the flavour stays fresh.
