Spice & Co – Sesame Seeds – White 80g

Sesame seeds have a sweet nutty flavour which is accentuated when dry roasted or lightly toasted. Because they have a very high natural oil content they tend to colour quickly when heated – so care should be taken to avoid scorching. Sesame seeds are an ingredient in the middle east mix Zaatar and the sesame paste tahini and are used in the baking and confectionary industries in both Eastern and Western cultures. Sesame seeds yield a high ratio of sesame oil which is used extensively in Asian cooking providing a distinct aromatic nuttiness to stir fries, salad dressings, and crumbed foods etc.
