Kadoya Pure Sesame Oil is one of the most trusted and iconic sesame oils in the world, produced by Kadoya Sesame Mills, a Japanese company with a legacy dating back to 1858. With over 160 years of expertise in sesame seed processing, Kadoya has perfected the art of extracting the finest sesame oil from carefully selected sesame seeds. The 56 oz large-format can is ideal for households and food service establishments that require a consistent supply of premium sesame oil for everyday cooking, seasoning, and finishing. Kadoya Pure Sesame Oil remains the gold standard in Asian cooking oils, trusted by both home cooks and professional chefs across the globe.

INGREDIENT

Kadoya Pure Sesame Oil contains only one ingredient: 100% pure toasted sesame seed oil. There are absolutely no additives, preservatives, artificial flavors, or blended vegetable oils included. Every drop in the bottle is derived entirely from premium sesame seeds that are carefully selected for quality and freshness. The sesame seeds are roasted at a precisely controlled temperature to develop a deep, golden color and a rich, complex aroma before being cold-pressed to extract the pure oil. This single-ingredient purity is what distinguishes Kadoya from blended or diluted sesame oils commonly found on the market. Each 1-tablespoon serving delivers 130 calories and 14 grams of fat, with the natural goodness of sesame in its most authentic form.

UNIQUE FLAVOR

The flavor of Kadoya Pure Sesame Oil is unlike any other cooking oil on the market. The carefully roasted sesame seeds produce an oil with a deeply nutty, warm, and aromatic character that instantly elevates any dish it touches. The toasting process creates a golden amber hue and unlocks the natural oils within the sesame seed, resulting in a robust flavor that is both rich and slightly smoky. Unlike lighter sesame oils, Kadoya’s pure sesame oil has a pronounced and lasting fragrance that fills the kitchen as soon as the bottle is opened. This distinctive flavor profile comes entirely from the quality of the sesame seeds and the roasting technique, with no artificial enhancement needed.

SUITABLE FOR ALL AGES

Kadoya Pure Sesame Oil is a wholesome, natural oil that is suitable for the entire family. Because it contains no artificial additives, chemical preservatives, or allergen-triggering ingredients beyond sesame itself, it is a clean and transparent choice for health-conscious households. The oil is naturally gluten free and free from dairy, eggs, and artificial flavoring, making it compatible with many dietary lifestyles. Parents can feel confident using Kadoya sesame oil to prepare meals for children, as the flavor is rich but not overwhelming when used in appropriate amounts.

Older adults who are mindful of their ingredient intake will also appreciate the simple, single-ingredient composition. Sesame oil has long been recognized in traditional Asian and Middle Eastern food cultures as a wholesome and nourishing cooking fat that has been passed down through generations.

WIDE RANGE OF USES

Kadoya Pure Sesame Oil is an incredibly versatile ingredient used across a wide range of Asian cuisines and cooking styles. It is most commonly used as a finishing oil, added at the very end of cooking to preserve its signature aroma and elevate the flavor of noodle dishes, soups, stir-fries, rice bowls, and dumplings. It serves as an exceptional marinade base for meats, tofu, and seafood, helping to tenderize protein while infusing a deep, savory fragrance.

Kadoya sesame oil is also a key ingredient in dressings, vinaigrettes, dipping sauces, and cold noodle salads where its bold nutty flavor shines without the heat of cooking. It pairs naturally with soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and vinegar to create classic Asian sauces. Chefs also use it to season hot pots, season steamed vegetables, and drizzle over blanched greens with oyster sauce for a restaurant-quality finishing touch.

CONVENIENT USE

The Kadoya Pure Sesame Oil 56 oz large-format can is designed for high-frequency use, making it ideal for both home kitchens and commercial food service environments. With approximately 118 servings per container, the generous volume ensures a long-lasting supply that reduces the need for frequent restocking. The can is sturdy and well-sealed to protect the oil from light and air exposure, preserving freshness and aroma over time. The wide opening allows for easy pouring directly into pans, measuring spoons, or mixing bowls without spillage.

For best results and longest shelf life, store the can in a cool, dry place away from direct heat or sunlight. Once opened, it is recommended to use the oil within a reasonable timeframe to enjoy the oil at peak freshness. The large size also offers excellent value for money, providing restaurant-quality sesame oil at a practical price per ounce.

DIRECTIONS

As a finishing oil: Add 1 to 2 teaspoons of Kadoya Pure Sesame Oil directly to your dish just before serving. Drizzle over noodle soups, ramen, fried rice, stir-fried vegetables, or steamed tofu to enhance aroma and flavor without losing the oil’s fragrance to heat.

For marinating: Combine Kadoya Pure Sesame Oil with soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and a touch of sugar to create a flavorful marinade. Coat chicken, beef, pork, tofu, or seafood and allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes before cooking.

For dressings and dipping sauces: Whisk together Kadoya Pure Sesame Oil with rice vinegar, soy sauce, and sesame seeds to create a classic Asian salad dressing. Use as a dipping sauce base for dumplings, spring rolls, or grilled skewers.

For stir-frying: Heat a small amount of Kadoya Pure Sesame Oil in a wok over medium heat. Add aromatics such as garlic and ginger, then toss in your choice of vegetables, proteins, and sauces. Because sesame oil has a relatively low smoke point, it is best used over medium heat or added at the end of high-heat cooking.

Storage: Keep the can tightly sealed in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and heat sources. After opening, use within 6 to 12 months for optimal flavor and freshness.
