Why we picked it

Black sesame is stronger and slightly more bitter than the golden kind, and its dark colour stands out beautifully: you use it for flavour and for decoration on sushi, rice or noodles.

About the product

Black sesame seeds, with a stronger flavour and a slightly more bitter note than golden sesame. They are used mostly in Asian cooking, both for flavour and for the colour contrast.

Taste and aroma

Tasting notes

Strong and nutty, with a slightly bitter note and a black colour that contrasts nicely.

How to use it

  • Sprinkle it over sushi, rice, noodles or salads, for flavour and decoration.
  • Toast it lightly and mix it with salt for gomashio.
  • Use it as a crunchy coating for tuna, tofu or vegetables.
  • Grind it into a black sesame paste, used in Asian desserts.

Storage

Keep black sesame in a cool, dry place, in a closed container; like the golden kind, it gains flavour if you toast it briefly before use.

Keep them in a sealed jar, somewhere cool. Raw nuts and seeds are rich in natural oil and can turn rancid faster in heat or direct light.
