Sesame oil is a cooking oil made from sesame seeds that is popular in Asian cooking. There are a few varieties made with pressed plain seeds or toasted seeds, and they are used in different ways. Light sesame oil is typically used as a neutral cooking oil, while toasted sesame oil is used as a flavoring in sauces, soups, vinaigrette, and other dishes.
For this recipe, we used a toasted sesame oil that adds a deliciously nutty flavor to this vinaigrette which will revolutionize your salads!

Sesame Vinaigrette
1 - Add the Dijon mustard and the sesame oil in a large mixing bowl. Then, emulsify with a silicone spatula until well combined.
2 - Pour half of the grapeseed oil while mixing and emulsify until well combined.
Tip: We store our spices and small quantities in these mini glass bowls from Duralex while cooking, and use this porcelain pitcher for liquids.
3 - Add the balsamic vinegar and the sea salt. Then, give it a quick mix with the spatula.
4 - Slowly pour the remaining grapeseed oil while mixing.
Tip: For the perfect emulsion, you may also use a hand blender. Our must-have hand blender is the Braun Multiquick Technology.
5 - Transfer the sesame vinaigrette to a glass dispenser (or like us in a cute little ramekin).
6 - Drizzle a generous amount of vinaigrette on your salad.
7 - Enjoy!
