Sesame oil, known as chamgireum (참기름) in Korean, is a fundamental ingredient in Korean cuisine, prized for its deep, nutty aroma and flavour. This particular oil from CJ Baeksul is made from carefully selected, high-quality sesame seeds that are roasted before pressing, which gives the oil its characteristic dark amber colour and rich, toasted fragrance. It is not typically used for high-heat frying but rather as a finishing oil to add a burst of flavour and aroma to dishes just before serving. A few drops can transform simple vegetable side dishes (namul), add depth to dipping sauces for Korean BBQ, or enrich the taste of bibimbap rice bowls. For best results, drizzle it over soups, stews, or noodle dishes right at the end of the cooking process. Store it in a cool, dark place to preserve its potent flavour. This product contains SESAME.
