Refined Sesame Oil is an exceptional culinary and cosmetic-grade vegetable oil extracted from wholesome sesame seeds. Through precise temperature-controlled processing, it achieves high clarity, a brilliant amber-honey color, and a refined, subtle nutty flavor. Renowned across Asian cuisine and traditional culinary arts, its naturally occurring lignans make it one of the most stable liquid vegetable oils against rancidity.
Selected white and golden sesame seeds are de-stoned, cleaned, and conditioned. The oil is expressed using hydraulic or continuous mechanical expeller presses. The crude oil is clarified through gravity settling, followed by gentle plate-and-frame filtration. The oil is then subjected to mild chemical refining: neutral washing to strip free fatty acids, filtration through activated diatomaceous earth, and vacuum deodorization tailored to preserve the beneficial natural sesamin and sesamolin lignans while purging any charred or bitter compounds.
Sesame oil contains nearly equal amounts of monounsaturated (approx. 40% oleic acid) and polyunsaturated (approx. 42% linoleic acid) fatty acids. It contains the rare and powerful phytochemicals sesamol, sesamolin, and sesamin—potent natural antioxidants that provide extraordinary resistance to oxidation and free-radical destruction. It is rich in zinc, iron, magnesium, and natural Vitamin E.
