OTTOGI 100% Pure Premium Roasted Sesame Oil, Toasted to Perfection, Traditional Korean Style Oil, 1650ml (56.0 fl oz)

The best sesame oil I have used. Nice flavor and aroma.

We have tried several different sesame oils in our cooking. To be honest, we have always had really good luck with the oils that we have purchased here so it's difficult to say whether or not this oil is any better quality than some other brands, but the taste is certainly as good as any we have tried and it has not disappointed us in any way. There is one difference, however, that gives it a certain advantage. The tops on some of the other oils use this weird sort of metallic cap that is sort pressure fitted to the can that can become frustrating to use and can be somewhat messy. This has more familiar and easy to use cap that creates less of a mess which is an advantage.Pros* Great roasted taste* Perfect for any recipe we have tried that calls for roasted sesame oil* Easy to use cap offering less of a messCons* Can't think of any

I make a lot of Asian-style dishes and upon recommendation of America's Test Kitchen, purchased this brand. Love it! Clean, nutty flavor and aroma, toasted sesame oil wasn't my favorite ingredient in the past. But this brand has changed my mind. It's a full 12 oz. also, so I found it to be a reasonable price.

ATK recommended and is a keeper for Chinese Chicken Salad dressing recipe.

It has a nice flavor and doesn't seem too viscous. Price is very reasonable for the amount (56 oz/approx. 1.6 liters). It is a Product of Korea. I've used it for stir fry at the end but it's actually best consumed unheated.This is toasted oil and the smell can be intense so try it sparingly first.The can arrived with a huge dent in it ... If the lid is open (ready to pour) even holding the can squirts oil. It seems like other people have had packaging issues I thought it wouldn't be a big deal but it's now happened every use. I am little annoyed by the waste/cleanup. If your can is dented, exchange for a new one.The oil is a dark golden brown color from the roasting. Because the seeds are roasted at high heat, the oil resists oxygenation and rancidity better than regular sesame oil, making it stable for long-term storage. Toasted sesame oil has the lowest smoke point of the three types (refined/unrefined/toasted). Typically toasted oil is not to be used stir frying or deep frying but you can use it as seasoning at the end of stir frying. Mostly used as flavoring and in salad dressings and marinades.Buy Kadoya if you plan to use the oil for cooking.https://www.amazon.com/Kadoya-Brand-Sesame-Oil-Oz/dp/B002HMLMHY

I know this company is reliable in Korea, so that's why I placed the order. The sesame oil smells just like the kind I used in Korea, and the quality is also very good, so I continue to order and buy it from here. The fact that it's a bit cheaper than the retail price is another reason why I order from here.

Nice aroma. Deep smoky nutty flavor. Dee-licious!
