Sesame oil is a flavorful oil made from pressed sesame seeds, often used in Asian and Middle Eastern cooking.

How do I use sesame oil in cooking?

Use it as a finishing oil for dressings, marinades, stir-fries, or drizzling on dishes for a nutty flavor; avoid high-heat frying with toasted sesame oil.

Is sesame oil good for frying?

Light sesame oil is suitable for frying due to its higher smoke point, but toasted sesame oil is best for flavoring after cooking.

How should I store sesame oil?

Store sesame oil in a cool, dark place with the cap tightly sealed; refrigeration helps extend its shelf life after opening.

Does sesame oil go bad?

Yes, sesame oil can go rancid over time, especially if exposed to light, heat, or air. Check for off smells or flavors.

Can I use sesame oil instead of olive oil?

You can substitute sesame oil in recipes for added nuttiness, but remember it has a much stronger flavor than olive oil.

Is sesame oil gluten-free?

Pure sesame oil is naturally gluten-free, but always check labels for cross-contamination if you have sensitivities.
