Toasted Sesame Seeds

Toasted white sesame seeds have a deeper nutty flavor and crisp texture compared to raw sesame. The toasting process brings their natural oils to the surface, making the aroma stronger and the flavor more pronounced. They are best used as a finishing ingredient, sprinkled over cooked dishes or mixed into sauces and spreads. Use them to add crunch and rich sesame flavor to salads, breads, stir-fries, and tahini.
