Sesame Oil 500ml for cooking & Asian Cuisine ｜Sunright｜
- Sesame oil chicken (麻油雞) and similar high-volume Taiwanese dishes traditionally use a generous amount of sesame oil, which makes the choice between pure and blended sesame oil a real cost and flavor decision rather than a minor preference. Blended sesame oil — sesame oil mixed with soybean oil — delivers a lighter body and lower per-use cost while retaining a recognizable sesame aroma, making it well suited to chicken soup, stir-fries, and other dishes that call for a generous pour. Sunright produces a soy-blended sesame oil specifically formulated for this use case, packaged as 500ml x 12 jars per case for foodservice and distribution buyers, alongside its 100% pure cold-pressed sesame oil for buyers who want an unblended formula.

Sesame Oil for Chicken: Choosing Between Blended and Pure Sesame Oil
Why Formulation Matters More for Sesame Oil Chicken Than for Most Dishes
Most recipes call for sesame oil by the teaspoon or tablespoon, as a finishing note rather than a primary cooking medium. Sesame oil chicken is different: the dish is built around simmering chicken and ginger in a substantial amount of oil, often close to a cup per pot. At that volume, the difference between a pure toasted sesame oil and a soy-blended one shows up directly in both flavor intensity and ingredient cost, which is why foodservice buyers and distributors sourcing oil for this category tend to ask about formulation before they ask about price.
Blended vs. Pure Sesame Oil
Pure Sesame Oil Blended Sesame Oil (with Soybean Oil) Composition 100% sesame oil Sesame oil blended with soybean oil Flavor intensity Strong, concentrated sesame aroma Milder sesame aroma, lighter body Best used for Finishing dishes, dressings, small-quantity seasoning High-volume cooking: soups, simmered dishes, stir-fries Cost per use Higher, since the oil itself is the concentrated ingredient Lower, since soybean oil carries part of the volume Typical buyer Buyers wanting a premium, single-ingredient label Foodservice operators and distributors serving high-oil-volume dishes at scale Neither formulation is “better” in absolute terms. The right choice depends on how the oil is actually used — a restaurant simmering sesame oil chicken by the pot has different needs than a retailer selling a finishing oil by the bottle.
Sunright’s Sesame Oil for Chicken (500ml)
Sunright’s 500ml sesame oil for chicken is a soy-blended formula, built for dishes where oil is used generously rather than drizzled: sesame oil chicken, chicken soup, noodles, and stir-fries. It ships in a 500ml x 12 jars case configuration, suited to both foodservice buyers who go through oil quickly and distributors stocking retail shelves.
The product is manufactured at the same Nantou, Taiwan facility as Sunright’s other sesame oil products, under the same ISO, ISO 22000, and HACCP-certified production system. Buyers wanting the unblended alternative can source https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWFBfCflm6Y Sunright’s white sesame oil, detailed in the Sunright Sesame Oil product guide.
Who This Formulation Fits
- Foodservice and restaurant supply distributors stocking oil for kitchens that prepare sesame oil chicken, chicken soup, or similar dishes in volume
- Private-label and retail buyers who want a value-tier sesame oil alongside a premium pure option, rather than one formulation covering every use case
- Asian grocery distributors serving households that cook these dishes at home and buy oil in standard retail sizes rather than professional bulk
