Ganesh Sesame Oil 750ml
£4.50
Ganesh sesame oil 750ml is a golden, mildly nutty oil pressed from untoasted sesame seed, and the bottle to pick when a South Indian recipe says nallennai or gingelly oil. It is not the dark toasted sesame oil used as a seasoning in Chinese cooking, so it can be heated and cooked in rather than only drizzled at the end. Choose it over sunflower oil when you want the oil to add flavour, and over the Gold Winner 1L if the smaller bottle suits your kitchen.
