3. Sesame Oils

Fruitful Island Sesame Oil Collection

This collection includes:

• Pure Sesame Oil (543ml)

• Blended Sesame Oil (543ml & 217ml)

• Chili Sesame Oil (217ml)

Applications & Uses:

• As a finishing oil: Drizzle over stir-fries, noodle dishes, soups, steamed vegetables, and dumpling dipping sauces for a burst of fragrance.

• To create a flavor base: Swirl into a hot wok at the end of cooking, or mix with garlic, ginger, and scallions for sauces and stir-fries.

• For high-heat cooking: Light or refined sesame oil has a high smoke point and works well for frying, deep-frying, and sautéing.

• In sauces, dressings, and marinades: Blend into dipping sauces, Asian-style salad dressings, and marinades for meat and tofu.

Important note: Toasted sesame oil should not be used for high-heat frying because it burns easily. Use it as a finishing oil instead.

Applications & Uses:

• For adding heat: Drizzle over noodles, dumplings, tofu, rice, and dipping sauces.
