Shree Madhura - Sesame Oil

The SRI MADHURA Sesame Oil (or Gingelly Oil) is a traditional, aromatic, and rich cooking oil presented in a sturdy amber plastic bottle with a white screw cap. The label clearly identifies the product as Sesame Oil (ಎಳ್ಳೆಣ್ಣೆ in Kannada) under the brand 'ಶ್ರೀ ಮಧುರಾ' (Sri Madhura). Sesame oil is a highly popular and essential ingredient in South Indian cuisine, valued for its nutty flavor and its role in balancing the heat of spicy dishes, such as Sambar and various spice powders (Podis). It is also commonly used in deep-frying, tempering, and pickling due to its stability and flavor enhancement properties. The oil has a deep amber-brown hue, typical of traditional, unrefined or partially refined sesame oil. Manufactured and bottled locally (address included on the label), the SRI MADHURA brand promises an authentic, high-quality cooking oil that is integral to regional Indian cooking styles.
