The flavor compounds of the oil from roasted sesame seeds were collected by simultaneous steam distillation/ extraction(SDE) and dynamic headspace sampling(DHS) and were analyzed using a gas chromatograph equipped with a flame ionization detector and connected into a mass spectrometer. Among the flavor compounds collected by the SDE method, 46 compounds were identified. They consisted of 6 alcohols, 6 aldehydes, 5 ketones or acids, 4 furans or phenols, 12 pyrazines, 4 pyridines or thiazoles, and others. Thirty six compounds were identified by DHS and many of them were the same as those identified by the SDE method. However, some compounds such as 1-hexanol, pentanal, and dimethylsulfide were identified only by the DHS method.
