Melrose Fresh Oils are your best guarantee of freshness, purity and quality. Melrose Fresh Unrefined Oils have a more distinct flavour and aroma, just like any other whole food which has not been denatured or processed. If you are used to denatured, refined oils, it may take some time to become accustomed to fresh unrefined oils. Besides the nutritional benefits, unrefined oils will impart extra aroma and flavour.
Melrose Organic Unrefined Sesame Oil is suitable for salads, saut's and frying. Excellent stability and resistance to oxidation due to natural sesamol content.
Sesame contains two important amino acids.
1. Methionine is crucial for the maintenance of a healthy liver and can produce Coline which helps the body to handle cholesterol and produce energy rather than fat.
2. The other amino acid, Tryptophane is the precursor of niacin which is essential for a healthy nervous system. It is also reported to promote youthful skin and healthy hair.
Sesame oil is also stable because it contains the antioxidant sesamol which helps to prevent it going rancid and so it can handle high temperatures e.g. in a wok. It has a balanced composition of Oleic Monounsaturated and Linoleic Polyunsaturated fatty acids which also help stabilise Sesame Oil - far more than other vegetable oils.
Sesame oil has been consumed safely in Asia for hundreds of years and it also is a good massage oil.
