La Tourangelle handcrafts this Toasted Sesame Oil strictly following traditional methods because we believe artisan care is still the best way to retain all the flavors, nutrients and health benefits that nature provides. La Tourangelle believes the finest toasted sesame seed oil should be bold and complex but not overpowering. This is only achieved through carefully selecting the highest quality sesame seeds, which are lightly toasted, expeller pressed and gently filtered to perfection. The result is this golden brown oil which adds rich, nutty flavor to your vinaigrette, stir fry or BBQ marinade for authentic Asian cuisine.
