Did you know that olive oil is the best substitute for sesame oil?

Particularly popular in Japanese cuisine, light sesame seed oil can be substituted with European olive oil.

The flavor of virgin olive oil, light or extra light, is close to that of sesame oil. Thanks to its unique qualities, certified European olive oil enriches each dish with its fruity touch and boosts them from a nutraceutical point of view.

The consistency of olive oil is also very similar to sesame oil, making it an excellent match for Japanese dishes.

Furthermore, the higher smoke point of different varieties of olive oil (different in EVOO) makes this extract perfect for frying, too.

European olive oil truly is a versatile cooking ingredient perfect for pan-frying, deep-frying, seasoning and baking.

Its smoke point is around 405ºF + (and up to 465ºF).
