Grilled Sesame Oil

Description

Caution: an exceptional product! Kuki Sesame Oil is not just any oil. Produced using the traditional method from roasted white, blonde and black sesame seeds, it is cold pressed and only the oil from the first pressing is kept. The oil rests for two to four weeks and is then filtered several times to ensure crystal clear results – and exceptional quality. You’ll be seduced by its amber color, but above all by its unique taste: round and intense, with subtle toasted notes.

Produced by “Kuki”, this oil reflects the history of the family of the same name, established in Japan over four centuries ago, first famous for its military exploits, then settling in Yokkaichi, Mie Prefecture (Kansai region, south of Honshū Island), where it earned its stripes as a retailer and then as a producer. When rapeseed oil became scarce, the Kuki turned to other vegetable oils, including sesame. Sesame now forms the basis of many of their products, whose reputation is well established. So go for it!

Use:

Sesame oil is one of the must-have products in the home because it can be used – literally – in all kinds of dishes. The power of this “Kuki” oil will bring out the best in both hot dishes (broths, stir-fries or stews) and cold dishes (salads or pickled vegetables); we love it with Chinese cabbage, with a hint of chili pepper. Perfect in vinaigrettes, this oil can also be used in the composition of hummus and even in frying, for competitive tempura.
