Freshly Black Sesame Seed from Twente Sesame seed is indispensable in a healthy diet, but next to being healthy it adds also a rich flavor to various dishes! The sesame seed from Dipasa is imported and fresh packed at Twente, the Netherlands! Background information The history of sesame seed is rich and have been used centuries before Christ. Sesame, also called ‘sesamum indicum’ is a plant from the Pedaliaceae family. The sesame plant is one of the oldest crops for oil consumption. Sesame seed can contain up to 50% oil content and is grown in tropical areas around the globe, especially Africa, South America and India. The Arabic name for sesame seed is ‘saasim’ or ‘simsim’ (USDA, 2020). The herbaceous sesame plant can grow up to 1 meter in height. It requires only a minimum amount of water to grow. The seeds and the plant roots are used in cuisine and for medicinal purposes. The high content of anti-oxidants causes the sesame seed to be very healthy (Businesswirecom, 2019). The two types of sesame seed; natural and hulled (with and without skin) are also used for different purposes. The natural sesame seed type for example can be toasted for a great nutty taste. Although hulled sesame seed can also be toasted, it is not that common. Next to the “normal” sesame seed, there is also black sesame seed, which is rich in aroma and flavour. The taste of black sesame seed is therefore a perfect combination on sushi dishes and Asian dishes.
