[0064] Raw material pretreatment:

[0065] Take 100 kg of Henan white sesame, remove branches, leaves, sand and gravel through a vibrating screen, and rinse in reverse current for 3 times (water temperature 25°C).

[0066] Primary stir-fry:

[0067] The sesame seeds were fried in a tilting wok until they were red inside and frosted outside (about 22 minutes), and hot air with a moisture content of 2.8% was introduced.

[0068] Hydrolysis decolorization:

[0069] First water washing: rinse with 40℃ tap water for 5 minutes to remove floating dust (turbidity drops from 150NTU to 20NTU);

[0070] Second water washing and decolorization: inject 50°C softened water, add composite hydrolysis promoter (L-cysteine ​​0.03wt%, sodium bicarbonate 0.2g / L, disodium EDTA 0.02g / L), and mechanically turn for 45 minutes (redox potential controlled at -30mV).

[0071] Dehydrated stir-fry:

[0072] Three-stage gradient frying (150℃×15min→170℃×10min→180℃×5min).

[0073] Cooling and maturation:

[0074] Dry in a negative pressure warehouse to 40°C (humidity 35%) and maintain for 1.5 hours.

[0085] Bitterness value reduced by 82% (ISO sensory score: bitterness intensity 1.2 vs traditional 6.8);

[0086] The oil yield is 48.5% (45.1% for traditional process).

[0087] Example 2: Sesame oil pressing process (hot pressing)
