Used in traditional Asian cooking for more than 4,000 years, sesame oil has become a staple of modern cuisine. Health-conscious consumers use it daily in their dishes, for its taste, high smoke point, and delicious, nutty flavor. Versatile and widely used in many dishes, sesame seed oil is now widely used.

The method used to process the seeds impacts the final product. At Flora, we believe in offering the best to our customers. That is why our organic sesame oil is made from pure, organic sesame seeds and is virgin, cold-pressed. This method differs from mainstream sesame and other cooking oils, which are produced through chemical extraction.

Cold-pressed Sesame Oil

Cold-pressed oil is the gold standard and the highest quality option. In this process, sesame seeds are mechanically pressed without any heat or chemicals. This approach protects the natural characteristics, flavor, and compounds that make this oil so special.

Virgin sesame oil, produced through this gentle extraction method, keeps the pure essence of the sesame seed and delivers the authentic nutty flavor that people love.

The production process matters because when oil is produced at high temperatures or with chemical solvents, many beneficial compounds are lost. Cold-pressed sesame oil preserves the antioxidants and other valuable components naturally present in the seed, giving the product its characteristic wholesome flavor.

This pressed oil technique has been refined over generations to produce sesame oil that’s free from unnecessary additives and processing.

Sesame Oil under Heat

A key benefit of sesame oil is its higher smoke point than many other oils, making it ideal for high-temperature cooking.

When oil begins to smoke, it starts to break down in a process called thermal oxidation. The smoke indicates that carcinogens are being released into the air and free radicals are forming in the oil. Oil that begins to smoke must be discarded and replaced with fresh oil for optimal flavor and quality.

Beware of highly processed supermarket oils, as they are formulated for a long shelf life and are not as heat-resistant as expected. Know your fats!

Cooking with Sesame Oil

Sesame oil’s characteristic nutty flavor complements rather than overwhelms your dishes. While it has been used extensively in Asian-inspired dishes, it has also been adopted by other cuisines for the depth and character it adds.

Pure virgin sesame oil can be drizzled over finished dishes or blended into sauces, and of course, for sizzling and sautéing. Its distinctive flavor goes well with many ingredients, including vegetables, pasta, fish, and meat. Because it withstands high heat, cooking with sesame oil is straightforward and offers many culinary possibilities.

Choose a quality cold-pressed sesame oil and enjoy its full flavor and wholesome benefits.

Quality Sesame Oil

Quality matters for any seed oil, and pure sesame oil exemplifies what to look for. The best options come from carefully sourced sesame seeds, pressed under ideal conditions. It’s the small details that make sesame oil a great addition to your meals and your everyday care.

Cold-pressed sesame oil from quality sources is a wholesome option for health-conscious cooks. The antioxidants in sesame seeds support the body's fight against free radicals. When the pressing techniques respect the integrity of the seed, the final product retains all its natural nourishing ingredients.

Benefits of Sesame Oil

Sesame oil is rich in antioxidants like sesamol and sesaminol, which may help protect your cells against oxidative stress.
\nThe oil contains heart-friendly unsaturated fats, particularly omega-6 fatty acids, which boost heart health when used as part of a healthy diet.\n

Beyond those benefits, sesame oil has long been used in traditional practices for skin and hair care, as it deeply moisturizes and supports healthy, glowing skin. Thanks to its vitamin E content, sesame oil may support skin health and its response to external aggressors.

Sesame oil also contains fundamental minerals such as copper, calcium, and magnesium, so nutritional benefits complement its flavor.

How to Store and Maximize Freshness

Keep Flora Organic Sesame Oil refrigerated after opening to preserve its quality and extend shelf life. When chilled, the oil may partially solidify. This is normal and indicates the presence of high-quality fats. Simply bring to room temperature before use.

Store in its original dark glass bottle away from direct light and heat. Use within 4 months of opening for optimum freshness and flavor.

Suggested Use

Flora Organic Sesame Oil's distinct, full-flavored profile makes it versatile in the kitchen. Use it for high-heat cooking like stir-fries and sautéing, where its 350º smoke point and stability shine.

Drizzle it over steamed vegetables, noodles, or rice bowls for an instant flavor boost. Blend it into marinades for meat, fish, or tofu, or whisk it into salad dressings and dipping sauces.

The oil works beautifully in traditional Asian dishes, from fried rice to sesame noodles, but also complements roasted vegetables, grilled proteins, and even popcorn. For a finishing touch, add a few drops to soups or grain bowls just before serving.

Why Choose Sesame Oil
