Toasted Sesame Oil

The aromatic pillar of Asian cuisine, toasted sesame oil owes its power to the deep roasting of the seeds before pressing, developing pyrazinic molecules of unprecedented depth. Its smoke point is anecdotal because it is NEVER used for cooking: the slightest pan-frying would carbonize its residual sugars, generating irremediable acridity. It is used drop by drop (due to its heady power) at the very end of cooking, poured off the heat over stir-fried noodles or incorporated raw into a soy vinaigrette.
