Notes
- Please be aware that there are two types of sesame oil. On my blog, sesame oil always refers to Toasted Sesame Oil (or Pure Sesame Oil/麻油/香油) which is made from toasted sesame seeds. It has a brownish-orange colour and a distinctive nutty aroma.
- The other type of sesame oil is made from raw, pressed sesame seeds. It has a light golden colour and doesn't have a strong smell. Usually it's labeled as "Sesame seed oil".
