Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between white and black sesame seeds? White sesame seeds are hulled, giving a milder, slightly less bitter flavor — black sesame seeds have the hull intact with a nuttier, more intense, slightly bitter flavor and higher mineral content.

Do sesame seeds need to be toasted before using? Toasting dramatically enhances the flavor of sesame seeds — a quick dry-toast in a skillet transforms them from mild to intensely nutty and fragrant.

Are sesame seeds a major allergen? Yes — sesame is one of the nine major food allergens recognized in the United States. This product contains sesame and is processed in a sesame facility.
