Sesame seeds are small, flat seeds that are known for their nutty taste and versatility in cooking. They are packed with protein, healthy fats, and essential minerals like calcium, iron, and magnesium. You can use them as a topping for bread and pastries or grind them into a paste called tahini. Sesame seeds add a unique crunch and depth of flavor to a wide range of dishes, from salads and stir-fries to desserts and sauces.
The seeds come from the plant Sesamum indicum and have been cultivated for thousands of years. They were used by ancient civilizations in the Middle East and the Indian subcontinent for their oil, which was extracted for cooking and medicinal purposes. Sesame seeds spread across Asia, Africa, and Europe through ancient trade routes and became an integral ingredient in regional cuisines. Today, sesame seeds are grown worldwide, with major producers including India, China, Sudan, and Myanmar. They continue to be a global culinary staple.
