Development history
Sesame oil has a very long history in China. As early as the Three Kingdoms period, there have been written records, "The History of the Three Kingdoms? Wei Zhi: "Sun Quan went to Hefei New Town, and the cage was full of relaxation ... It was smashed into a torch and filled with sesame oil ..." As a lighting fuel, sesame oil at that time was made by pressing sesame seeds with stone mortar method or wood pressing method. Zhang Hua, a native of A Jin, recorded in the Natural History that "frying sesame oil makes water smokeless, but when it no longer boils, it is still cold". And the method of making douchi with sesame oil ... Steaming with sesame oil and stopping the violence in three episodes "is the earliest record of sesame oil culture. It has been 1600 years. During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, sesame oil was widely used in catering. During the Tang and Song Dynasties, sesame oil was considered as the best edible vegetable oil and was widely used.
Xiao Mo sesame oil is now mainly in Zhumadian, Henan.
The production of small mill oil in Zhumadian area was recorded as early as the Ming Dynasty. By the early Qing Dynasty, the sesame oil in Zhumadian had become a palace offering, and the production of sesame oil in Zhumadian had also become a scale. Nine times out of ten, farmers know how to squeeze oil. With the oil mill in Tanaka village, every family is an "oiler", the streets are jingling and there are "oil sellers" everywhere, gradually forming a sesame oil diet culture.
Zhang Dawei, the inheritor of ancient sesame oil, was born in Shangcai Oil-pressing Family. There is also a Pangu stone mill handed down from generation to generation, with a diameter of 1.65 meters and a weight of more than 900 kilograms. Small ground sesame oil also has its unique health care function. In Compendium of Materia Medica, sesame is introduced as "benefiting qi, promoting granulation, filling brain marrow, strengthening physique for a long time, clearing eyes and ears, resisting thirst and prolonging life". Make "white hair turn black" and "get rid of all chronic diseases ..."
According to the scientific analysis of nutritionists, sesame is rich in nutrients needed by human body, which can really delay people's aging and beauty. Eating sesame oil has obvious effects on protecting blood vessels, relaxing bowels, relieving cough and alcohol and tobacco poisoning, protecting voice and treating rhinitis.
According to historical records, in the spring of the tenth year of Yongzheng (1732), Tao, governor of Caodao, and his accompanying officials came to Runan House (known as Tianzhong in ancient times) to inspect the people's feelings. When they came to Zhumadian, a group of people were walking in the street when they suddenly smelled a strong fragrance. They asked the accompanying officials and replied: There is a small sesame oil mill here, and this fragrance comes from this mill. Master Tao is very happy to go. After about a hundred steps, he saw a rainbow flying not far away, which read "Dou Da": the oil mill in the sky. When I came to the oil mill, I saw the smoke curling up, the sesame seeds in the cauldron were steaming, and the sesame oil in the other cauldron was bright and fragrant. I said to the officials with great joy and excitement: this is an excellent sacrifice. Immediately seal the ten altars and deliver them to Beijing in person. Yongzheng tasted the dishes he cooked, and immediately ordered Runan officials to expand sesame planting and vigorously promote the processing of sesame oil. All the oil produced by the oil mill is graded by Lao Zhangman, first-class tribute, second-class delivery to the government, and the rest are sold freely. At this point, Xiao Mo sesame oil in Zhumadian, which has been circulating for hundreds of years, is known to outsiders.
Some nutritionists believe that ground sesame oil should be one of the best table flavors for middle-aged and elderly people.
First of all, the rich aroma of sesame oil can not only stimulate the appetite of middle-aged and elderly people whose digestive function has been weakened, but also facilitate the absorption of nutrients. The digestion and absorption rate of sesame oil itself is also very high, reaching 98%. Sesame oil contains a lot of oil, which has a good laxative effect and a certain preventive effect and curative effect on constipation.
Secondly, sesame oil has a good effect of softening blood vessels and maintaining blood vessel elasticity. Its rich vitamin E is beneficial to maintain the integrity and normal function of cell membrane and reduce the accumulation of lipids in the body.
Thirdly, lecithin in sesame oil can not only moisturize the skin, but also remove spots, especially senile spots.
Finally, the long-term use of sesame oil by middle-aged and elderly people can also prevent hair loss and premature gray hair; Especially black sesame oil. For middle-aged people with atrophied gums, especially those who have the habit of smoking and drinking, long-term use of sesame oil can protect gums and mouth.

Now, Mr. Zhang Dawei, a descendant of Lao Zhangman, has been adhering to the ancestral motto of "Honest management and people-oriented". A small oil mill has gradually developed into a production base that covers an area of more than 30 mu and meets the requirements of international standards-Zhumadian Gu Wei Xiaomao Sesame Oil Development Co., Ltd., and has attracted an American investment company to invest 5 million yuan. At present, the company's products are indirectly exported to Russia, South Korea, Japan, Lithuania and other countries.
Walking into the office hall of the company, I saw an ancient stone mill handed down from the late Qing Dynasty. This stone mill has a diameter of1.66m and a weight of1800kg. It can be said that the ancient stone grinds the sky for a thousand years, and the century-old ancient square conveys the ancient taste.

According to the grinding process of a well-known brand of sesame oil in China, it is summarized as follows:
Small ground sesame oil is produced by "water substitution method"
Classic process 1: sesame embryo culture
Sesame oil for kittens is rich in nutrition. The key is to cultivate sesame seeds into sesame embryos before feeding raw materials to promote the production of sesamol, sesamin, sesamin and other nutrients beneficial to human body. Through scientific research, this technology is highly consistent with modern life science. This is not available in other processes.
Classic process 2: stone grinding
The grinding process of stone mill is low temperature and low pressure, and the process temperature is only 60-65℃, which will not destroy the aromatic substances and functional nutrients in sesame oil.
Classic Process 3: Replacing Oil Recovery with Water
Using high-quality drinking water, the oil embryo can be easily separated, and no chemical solvent is needed in the process of oil extraction, and there is no chemical solvent residue. At the same time, due to the high specific gravity of sesame oil, heavy metals harmful to human body are also precipitated from sesame oil, so the sesame oil prepared by this method is completely healthy.
Classic process 4: patented physical purification technology
Cat sesame oil adopts patented physical filtration technology, using natural plant fiber as medium, through two-stage electronic constant temperature natural precipitation and 36-layer physical filtration, impurities and foreign bodies in sesame oil are filtered out. After purification, the appearance of kitten sesame oil is crystal clear, and its color, fragrance and taste are timeless.
