My little 6 oz. bottle of toasted sesame oil is Yissine brand from Rhee Bros. Inc., Korean Farm, Inc. and is a product of Taiwan. It makes sense because the pan Asian market where I buy it is Korean owned. The English nutrition label is kind of a hoot, because it says the calories per 1/12 bottle serving are 130 (about right), but that calories from fat are only 20. :smile: There's nothing in it except the roasted sesame oil. The bottle is covered in characters I cannot read, but I don't let any of that stuff worry me a bit. I love the stuff. It goes a looong way, and that little bottle lasts me for years in the fridge, but what delicious nutty flavor for a finishing oil.

 

Now I wish I could find miso in the market. Anyone have suggestions where to look? The employees are usually quite unhelpful unless I catch the lady owner/manager? who is always very kind to me when she's there.
