Goma abura, toasted sesame oil, is one of the great aromatic ingredients of the Japanese kitchen, and this is a premium expression of it from Maruhon, a respected Japanese house dedicated to the craft. This toasted sesame oil is made from one hundred percent toasted sesame seeds, traditionally and mechanically pressed rather than chemically extracted, a gentler method that preserves the full, honest character of the seed and marks it out as a superior grade oil.

The result is an oil of real depth and purity, a rich, glowing amber with a bold, unmistakable toasted aroma and a deeply nutty, savoury flavour. Its intensity is its point, this is a finishing oil, meant to be added with a light hand at the end of cooking, where just a few drops release a wave of warm sesame fragrance that lifts and completes a dish.

It belongs across Japanese, Chinese and Korean cooking. It is drizzled over finished stir fries, ramen and rice bowls, whisked into dressings and marinades, stirred into dipping sauces, and used to season noodles and vegetables. Its premium quality and smaller, precise format make it ideal as a fine finishing oil for a kitchen that cares about the details.
