- Use
The nutty, earthy aroma of the black sesame is intensified during roasting. It is well suited for baking, where it gives bread a loose consistency. Sprinkled on baked goods, it provides a typical flavor: Turkish flat bread would only be half as good if the black seeds did not exist. Turkish cuisine also produces dumplings filled with minced meat or sheep’s cheese seasoned with sesame seeds. In Asian cuisine it is a component of many dishes, here it belongs to vegetable dishes, rice and noodles. The modern full-fledged kitchen also enjoys the black sesame variant. Potato dishes are seasoned with sesame and bread spreads are refined with it. Black organic sesame is an exciting topping for salads and fruit. The contrasts between the spicy grains and apricots or mangoes result in an interesting taste combination.
