Sesame seeds are the small, flat seeds of the Sesamum indicum plant, which is native to Africa and Asia. These seeds have a nutty and slightly sweet flavor and are commonly used in cooking, particularly in Middle Eastern, Asian, and Mediterranean cuisines. They come in a range of colors, from pale yellow to black, and can be either hulled or unhulled. Hulled sesame seeds are the most commonly used for culinary purposes, as they have a softer texture and a more delicate flavor. Unhulled sesame seeds have a coarse texture and a stronger flavor and are often used in health foods because they contain more fiber and nutrients than hulled seeds.
In addition, sesame seeds are a rich source of protein, healthy fats, and minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and iron. They are also used to make tahini, a paste that is a staple ingredient in many dishes, including hummus and baba ghanoush. Sesame oil is another popular product that is made from sesame seeds and is commonly used in cooking and as a condiment. As a result, sesame seeds are widely utilized in the food and beverage (F&B) industry across the globe.
