SESAME OIL
Sesame oil is often what gives many Korean dishes that toasty, luscious aroma. It is the perfect finishing touch, whether you’re whipping up noodles or stir-frying veggies.
Ours is made with 100% whole and organic sesame seeds, cold-pressed to perfection. The result is intense, nutty, and rich.
Chef Esther’s sesame oil is sure to be the star in your kitchen!

HOW TO USE
Every dish deserves that luscious, nutty finish! Drizzle sesame oil on top of everything – from stir-fries and noodles to fried rice and vegetables. Sesame oil also works very well in dipping sauces for Korean BBQ.
