Why we picked it

Sesame is a kitchen staple: you sprinkle it raw on bread and covrigi (bread rings), turn it into tahini or halva, or toast it lightly for a much more intense nutty flavour.

About the product

Raw golden sesame seeds with a delicate nutty aroma. They are a staple ingredient in Middle Eastern and Asian cooking, used both as a topping and as the base for tahini and halva.

Taste and aroma

Tasting notes

Delicate and slightly nutty when raw; light toasting makes it much more aromatic.

How to use it

  • Sprinkle them on bread, covrigi (bread rings), rolls or over salads, for texture and flavour.
  • Toast them lightly in a dry frying pan before using them in Asian dishes or over rice.
  • Grind them for homemade tahini, the base for hummus and for dressings.
  • Use them in halva, bars or mixed with salt (gomashio).

Storage

Toast sesame only just before use, so the aroma is as lively as possible; until then, keep it in a cool, dry place, in a closed jar.

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.
