Organic Kala Til (Sesame Black Seeds), Conscious Food (100gm)
Sesame seeds are known to be one of the first seasonings and are the oldest oilseed crop in the world. It was domesticated over 3000 years ago and is native to India. The oil content in sesame seeds is the highest of all other seeds.
These tiny seeds are found in a variety of colours, including red, brown, and black. While white sesame seeds are the most common, black sesame seeds are also often used in cooking. Sesame seeds have a nutty aroma and taste mild and buttery. They are especially common in Oriental and Middle Eastern cooking.
Black sesame seeds are called kaala til in India. They are more flavourful and have a stronger aroma than white or brown sesame seeds. Toasting black sesame seeds releases beneficial nutrients, as well as enhances the flavour.
