01Good ways to use it
Try it in tempering, dals, chutneys, marinades and savoury vegetable dishes. Start with a little when you want sesame flavour to complement, not overpower, a dish.
Kitchen note
A small pour can add a pronounced sesame note. Store tightly closed, away from heat and direct light.
02What to avoid
Do not use if sesame is unsafe for you because of an allergy. Avoid heating until the oil smokes or repeatedly reusing frying oil.
FSSAI advises avoiding repeated reuse of frying oil where possible and discarding oil that smokes, foams or becomes dark and murky. Read FSSAI guidance.
