Black vs. White Sesame Seeds: What's the Difference?
While both are nutritious, black sesame seeds are often considered to have a slightly stronger, more bitter, and nuttier flavour. Their hull is left intact, which gives them their colour and a higher concentration of certain antioxidants, particularly calcium and iron. White sesame seeds are hulled, resulting in a milder taste and lighter colour.

How to Use Black Sesame Seeds in Your Kitchen:

• Gourmet Garnish: Sprinkle over sushi, sashimi, poke bowls, ramen, stir-fries, and salads for instant visual upgrade and a nutrient boost.

• Baking Brilliance: Use to top burger buns, bread, crackers, and savoury scones. Incorporate into cookies for a unique twist.

• Sweet Treats: A classic topping for Japanese mochi and rice balls. Perfect for decorating cupcakes, ice cream, and frosted cakes.

• Homemade Sesame Paste: Toast and grind into a rich, intensely flavoured black tahini or paste for dressings and sauces.

• Health Boost: Blend into smoothies, sprinkle over oatmeal or acai bowls, or mix into yoghurt for added texture and nutrients.
