Roasted sesame seeds are one of the small essentials of the Asian kitchen, tiny seeds toasted to release their full character. Roasting is the key, transforming the raw seed into something rich, nutty and aromatic with a satisfying, delicate crunch, ready to garnish and to flavour across the whole menu.

This product is offered in both colours. The White seeds are pale golden with a rich, nutty, subtly sweet flavour and an elegant, understated look, the everyday choice for scattering over rice, salads and sushi, for pressing into coatings and for grinding into gomashio and goma ae dressings. The Black seeds are bolder and more dramatic, left unhulled for a more intense, deeply nutty, almost smoky flavour and a striking glossy black colour.

Both share the same satisfying crunch and versatility, working as a finishing garnish, a coating for seared fish and fried foods, an ingredient in dressings, sauces and breads, and a base for classic sesame seasonings. Supplied ready roasted in 1kg packs, with the choice of a subtle or a dramatic effect.
