Sesame oil
Pure sesame oil (also known as light or unroasted sesame oil) is made from raw, unroasted sesame seeds and has a mild, almost neutral flavor. This makes it very different from dark, roasted sesame oil, which is used as an intense seasoning oil.

Health benefits
Pure sesame oil is not only popular in the kitchen, but is also valued for its health properties:
Fatty acids: It contains many valuable unsaturated fatty acids, especially linoleic acid, which can help lower cholesterol levels.
Antioxidants: It is rich in powerful antioxidants such as sesamol and sesamin, which can neutralize free radicals and have anti-inflammatory properties.
For a healthy diet, about one to two tablespoons of virgin (cold-pressed) sesame oil per day is recommended.
