In most Indian households, you will often find a bottle of sesame oil stored in the kitchen shelf for special recipes. Also, sesame oil is valued for its medicinal properties. It is said to be good for the skin, and often used for massages as it penetrates deep into the skin to provide nourishment and helps to relieve stress. Shruti’s sesame oil is cold pressed in the traditional wooden press to save much of its nutritional values which are usually lost in modern pressing and refining.
