Yamada Seiyu Roasted Black Sesame Oil 65ml

The black sesame seeds in this Yamada Seiyu Roasted Black Sesame Oil produce a particularly strong sesame oil. The difficulty in the specific production of black sesame lies in roasting for a long time without allowing bitter substances to develop, which is time- and cost consuming for usual oil producers. Producer Yamada Seiyu takes this journey with ease and developed an oil with an intense, strong flavour which is  suitable for seasoning Chinese, Asian or other dishes prepared with strong spices.

Yamada Sesame Oil Manufacturing Company was founded in Kyoto in 1934 by Yutaka Yamada, the grandfather of the current company owner. Yamada-san, who was struggling with health problems, changed his dietary style under the guidance of Sakurazawa-san, the founder of macrobiotics. The physical recovery inspired Yamada-san to change his lifestyle, so he started to produce the first sesame oil under the guidance of the master of macrobiotics. Today, the company with its 50 employees produces other products from the best sesame seeds in addition to the signature sesame oil. All products are carefully made by hand using traditional methods without the use of artificial flavourings.

The sesame seed consists of 50% oil. In the traditional, as well as in the chemical method of oil extraction, all the fat is pressed out with up to 3 pressings or the use of chemicals. The special process developed by Yamada Sesame Oil carries out only one pressing, which extracts only about 30% of the oil from the sesame seed. A pure 'extra virgin' product! You will be surprised!
