To make Eden Toasted Sesame Oil whole sesame seeds are cleaned, slowly roasted in a rotary kiln to unlock their flavor and aroma, then placed in a screw or expeller press to extract the oil. This is gently filtered, then bottled in amber glass. Nitrogen flushed before capping to protect and preserve its nutrients, flavor, and integrity.

It is best to avoid commercial vegetable oil that is heated above its boiling point, treated with the solvent hexane, washed with sodium hydroxide, and chemically bleached and deodorized at 400 degrees F. For delicious and nutritious unrefined oils, choose Eden.
