Sesame oil, derived from sesame seeds, is a flavorful and aromatic cooking oil widely used in Asian, Middle Eastern, and African cuisines. Known for its nutty taste, it comes in two primary forms: toasted sesame oil, which has a rich, dark flavor, and light sesame oil with a more subtle profile. Nutritionally, sesame oil is rich in healthy fats, including monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, which support heart health. It contains antioxidants like sesamol and sesamin, which may have anti-inflammatory and anti-aging properties. Sesame oil is also a source of vitamin E, benefiting skin and immune health. However, as a highly caloric food, moderation is key to prevent excessive calorie intake. Popular in stir-fries, marinades, and dressings, sesame oil enhances dishes with its bold flavor while contributing a variety of nutritional benefits when consumed responsibly.
