2. Cook’s Tip on Sesame Oil

   Step 4

   Sesame oil comes from sesame seeds; the darker variety of oil, often called toasted sesame oil, is made from toasted sesame seeds and has a more robust flavor and aroma than regular sesame oil. It takes only a small amount of toasted sesame oil to add a lot of flavor.
