Lee Kum Kee's pure black sesame oil is pressed once, and only once, from selected black sesame seeds with nothing else added, which gives it a deeper, more intense roasted aroma than regular sesame oil and a rich, slightly smoky flavour. In Cantonese kitchens black sesame oil is the one reached for in nourishing dishes: sesame oil chicken, braised chicken with ginger and black sesame oil, kidney and ginger soup, or simply a spoonful over a bowl of rice or plain noodles. Use it to finish rather than to fry, and store away from heat and light with the cap tightly closed.
