Your Oils. Your Recipe. The Right Contract Manufacturer.
Sesame oil is a versatile and nutrient-rich oil derived from sesame seeds, commonly used for cooking, skincare, and medicinal purposes. Its high smoke point makes it ideal for a variety of culinary applications, ranging from stir-frying and deep frying to dressings and marinades. Rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, sesame oil also contains healthy fats like monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, which support heart health and overall well-being. The natural antioxidant properties help extend the oil’s shelf life, making it a stable option for long-term storage. Sesame oil has moisturizing qualities, making it suitable for use in personal care products, where it helps nourish skin and hair.
The presence of sesamol and sesamin, both powerful antioxidants, also contributes to its ability to neutralize free radicals, which can protect cells from damage.

01 Types of Sesame Oil:
- Cold-Pressed Sesame Oil: Extracted without heat to retain maximum nutrients, this oil is perfect for raw applications such as salad dressings or drizzling over cooked dishes. Its flavor is mild and nutty, allowing the natural essence of sesame seeds to shine without overpowering other ingredients.
- Toasted Sesame Oil: Toasted sesame oil undergoes a roasting process before extraction, resulting in a darker color and stronger, more pronounced flavor. This version is commonly used in Asian cuisine for stir-fries, sauces, and finishing touches, adding a deep, roasted sesame taste that enhances the flavor profile of various dishes.
- Refined Sesame Oil: Light in color and neutral in flavor, refined sesame oil is ideal for high-heat cooking like frying or sautéing. This type undergoes additional processing to remove impurities, making it a versatile choice for both commercial and household kitchens where an unobtrusive flavor is needed.
- Unrefined Sesame Oil: Retaining more of its natural aroma and nutrients, unrefined sesame oil is minimally processed, offering a rich flavor and aroma. This type of oil is often used in holistic and skincare applications due to its nourishing properties.
