Sesame is known as one of the oldest oilseed crops in the world. As compared to other oilseeds, they have the most oil content. It is used in the cuisines of all over the world because of its nutty flavour and rich taste. It looks very similar to the black seed or nigella sativa. People get confused and call it by names of onion seed and black cumin. You should know that they are all different and don’t get confused by their looks.
Sesamum indicum is a plant that has been cultivated for thousands of years. It has fruit pods that contain oily, small and flat seeds called Black Sesame Seeds. There are a lot of colour varieties of sesame seeds such as brown, white, black, gold, grey, and tan.
When the husk of the black sesame seed is removed, it turns into white sesame seed because after removing the hull of the grain, its white inner parts are revealed. By removing the hull, the seed will also have different nutrients and flavours.
When it comes to the uses of seeds in the kitchen, they can be used in many ways. You can sprinkle them on salads, rice dishes, vegetables, and noodles. They can also be used to coat fish for crunchy coating or even in baked items. Sesame seeds are used in all types of cooking in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and the Mediterranean. The black seeds are richer in taste with nutty flavour but have less oil. That is the reason they are used to giving finishing touches to food. Moreover, they offer an aesthetic touch to food because of their unique colour. In China and Japan, people use black sesame seeds in sweets such as ice cream, mochi, and cookies.
