    Everything! Favorite staple in our household. Kimbap, congee, stir fries, dumplings, noodles, salads, hummus, soups, steaks…I could keep going, getting hungry…😜

  2. It’s not exactly a Japanese dish but I like using sesame oil when I make fried rice.

    Regular sesame oil? I use it as a finishing oil. So on rice, avocado toast, etc. spicy sesame oil, anywhere I’d put hot sauce on: omelettes, pho/ramen, rice, meats, etc

    Pretty much everything you want to have that Asian tastes to it, pairs great with peppers, sweet flavors in meats. And spice after the fact everything great. I recommend finding a recipe and just substituting sesame oil for whatever oil the recipe calls for

    I use this for soo much!

    * I’ll add it to other oil to stirfry
    * Add it to coleslaw
    * I add a little for my okayu when I want a smokier flavor (usually with mushrooms)
    * Add some to surigoma sauce
    * When I make yakiniku, I like having sesame oil mixed with salt and pepper on table as well as tare and goma sauce
    * It’s wonderful mixed in with jjajangmyeon

    Not necessarily Japanese food but at a lot of Korean bbq restaurants use a dipping sauce of sesame oil and salt with their meat. It works well with grilled meats of chicken, beef, and pork.

    I recommend getting pure sesame oil, rather than a blend. I think you’ll like it even more!

    I like to drizzle soy sauce and little bit of sesame oil on plain avocado. A nice healthy little snack.

    Use it on edamame. Look up the Roy’s restaurant edamame pupus recipe. Soooo yummeh!
