Why is KEWPIE Deep-Roasted Sesame Dressing So Delicious?
The rich aroma and flavor of KEWPIE Deep-Roasted Sesame Dressing comes from carefully selected ingredients and our insistence on quality production methods.
1. The aroma of sesame seeds roasted using the same method as coffee beans.
Did you know that coffee tastes best with freshly ground beans and a just-brewed aroma? The inspiration for KEWPIE Deep-Roasted Sesame Dressing, which was created with the aim of making the world’s most delicious sesame dressing, came from coffee. Kewpie creates this dressing using a process that infuses the aroma of freshly ground, slow roasted sesame seeds into every bottle, enabling this rich aroma to be enjoyed every time it is used.
2. A rich, full flavor that is also mild and creamy.
KEWPIE Deep-Roasted Sesame Dressing is made with egg yolks, which finely emulsify the deep-roasted sesame and create a smooth texture. The oil content, which gives this dressing its richness and flavor, goes perfectly with the sesame, resulting in a flavor that is both mild and creamy.
3. Can be enjoyed with a variety of ingredients and cuisines.
KEWPIE Deep-Roasted Sesame Dressing is the perfect match for a variety of ingredients, including vegetables, meat, fish, tofu, and noodles.
In addition to salads, it can also be used as a drizzle on rice or noodle recipes, as a flavoring for stir-fries, or as a dipping sauce. We receive many comments from customers who “can never get enough and use it again and again,” and who have “tried other dressings, but always come back to this distinctive flavor.” We invite you to find your favorite way to eat.

Tips
1. How should the dressing be shaken to maximize the flavor?
Shaking the bottle from side to side with a snap of the wrist mixes the dressing more thoroughly than shaking it up and down, resulting in even better taste.
Firmly tighten the cap, and shake well from side to side while holding the narrow part of bottle at the center.
2. When did salad dressing first appear in Japan?
In 1958, Kewpie became the first company in Japan to manufacture and sell salad dressing, starting with French Dressing (Red). Salad culture has spread since then, and today there are nearly 50 types of salad dressing sold by Kewpie in Japan.
3. How many sesame seeds are used in KEWPIE Deep-Roasted Sesame Dressing?
Approximately 4,000 sesame seeds are used to make one 180 ml bottle.
