White Sesame Seeds have a rich history dating back thousands of years. They are small but mighty, typically measure 2-3 millimeters in a unique tear-drop shape on plants 3-6 feet in height. Sesame seeds are prized for their oil and nutritional value and have been cultivated in ancient civilizations. These tiny seeds symbolize wisdom and immortality in various cultures and are often associated with good luck and prosperity. Sprinkle sesame seeds on bread and rolls for a delightful crunch and nutty flavor. Or grind sesame seeds to make tahini, a key ingredient in hummus and other Middle Eastern dishes, or to make toasted sesame oil, a key ingredient in Asian stir-fries, sauces, and dressings. Or simple garnish salads, noodles, and sushi rolls for added texture and flavor.
