Shenglong Sesame Oil 4.5L is a commercial bulk-sized jug of sesame oil commonly used by restaurants, commercial kitchens, and high-volume home cooks. Product AttributesVolume: 4.5 Litres (Large commercial food-service plastic jug or handle container). Flavor Profile: Typically available as a dark, roasted (toasted) Chinese sesame oil, delivering a highly intense, fragrant, and nutty aroma. Optimal Usage in Kitchens:Finishing Oil: To maximize its punchy, signature aroma, drizzle it over dishes after turning off the heat. High heat over extended periods destroys its delicate flavor and can leave a bitter taste. Cold Applications: Perfect for building cold noodle dressings, dipping sauces, and standard Asian vinaigrettes.Marinades & Fillings: Widely utilized in commercial quantities to mix into dumpling fillings (like Xiao Long Bao), dim sum items, or proteins before cooking to seal in moisture. Proper Bulk Storage:Because sesame oil contains natural polyunsaturated fats, a large 4.5L volume is susceptible to oxidation if poorly handled. Use these methods to keep it fresh:Decant for Daily Use: Pour a manageable amount (like 250ml or 500ml) into a smaller squeeze or glass bottle for daily stove-side use to prevent frequently opening the main jug.Seal Tight: Keep the main 4.5L container tightly capped to restrict oxygen exposure.Cool, Dark Placement: Store the bulk jug in a cool pantry, bottom shelf, or commercial walk-in. Avoid keeping the large jug next to hot commercial ranges, fryers, or direct sunlight
