Sesame oil, known as chamgireum (참기름) in Korean, is a fundamental cooking oil in Korean cuisine, prized for its distinctive nutty aroma and rich flavour. This 100% pure sesame oil from Otogi is made by carefully roasting and pressing high-quality sesame seeds, resulting in a dark, amber-coloured oil with a deep, toasted fragrance. It is primarily used as a finishing oil to add flavour rather than for high-heat frying. Drizzle it over bibimbap, stir-fries, or noodle dishes just before serving to enhance their taste. It is also an essential ingredient for making dipping sauces for Korean BBQ or seasoning vegetables for banchan (side dishes). This small 55ml bottle is ideal for home cooks wanting to explore authentic Korean flavours without committing to a large container. Contains SESAME.
