All shapes and sizes for staying in shape.

and the idea for tahini sauce – sesame butter – came from Turkey (any hummus fans out there?).
Rich in fibre.
Source of protein.
Record vegetable calcium content.
What a story!
Sesame grows where all other plants fail. That’s why it’s one of the first known crops of Africa and India.
The saying “Open Sesame!” is based on fact: sesame fruits open up, spreading their seeds everywhere.
In India, sesame is considered to be a superior food and is used in Ayurvedic medicine.
