Using sesame oil as a salad dressing adds delicate nutty notes and enhances the dish’s nutritional value. Sesame oil contains up to 47% omega-6 fatty acids, which are essential components of cell membranes and play an important role in nervous system function. It also contains up to 42% oleic acid (omega-9), which can help maintain healthy cholesterol levels and support the elasticity of blood vessels.

In addition, sesame oil contains unique lignans, including sesamin, sesamolin, and sesamol, known for their antioxidant properties and potential to help protect cells from oxidative stress.
