Product description
VIRGIN SESAME OIL - TRADITIONALLY WOOD-PRESSED
Our Virgin Sesame Oil is an unrefined edible oil extracted from the first cold pressing of high-quality black sesame seeds. Traditionally wood-pressed to retain the natural character of the seeds, this versatile oil belongs in the kitchen and can also be used as part of massage and personal-care routines.
HOW IS THE OIL PRODUCED?
We source high-quality black sesame seeds from our organic farmers. The seeds are pressed using a traditional wood press technique, producing an unrefined oil without the intensive refining processes used for many conventional cooking oils.
The finished oil is stored in a sustainable glass jar to help preserve its quality and natural character.

HOW TO USE SESAME OIL?
Add Virgin Sesame Oil to everyday meals when you want the distinctive flavour of sesame. It can be used in stir-fries, salads and marinades.
- Stir-fries: Add a small amount to a heated wok, sauté vegetables with your preferred seasonings and herbs, and cook until ready.
- Salads: Drizzle directly over salads or combine with other ingredients to make a simple dressing.
- Marinades: Add to marinades for vegetables and other dishes where sesame flavour works well.
Sesame oil has a long history of use in Ayurvedic massage practices. Its rich, emollient texture makes it suitable for use as a massage oil and for moisturising the skin.
Sesame oil can be used as a simple hair and scalp oil. Massage a small amount through the hair and scalp, leave for a suitable period, then wash thoroughly. It can help condition dry-feeling hair and leave it feeling soft and nourished.
Sesame oil is traditionally used for oil pulling in Ayurveda. If you choose to practise oil pulling, use the oil as part of your established oral-care routine rather than as a replacement for brushing, flossing or professional dental care.
