A sprinkle of toasted sesame turns plain rice, roasted vegetables, noodles, and salads into something with nutty warmth and a soft crunch. Hulled white sesame seeds are the mild, buttery workhorse of the sesame world. Toast them and scatter over stir-fries, grain bowls, and breads. Press them onto salmon or chicken, bake them into cookies and brittle, or grind them into your own tahini and sesame sauces.

Raw, the seeds taste a little flat. Toasting is what wakes them, drawing out the oils and the nutty aroma, so a quick pass in a dry pan pays off every time. The trick is medium heat and constant motion, since sesame turns from golden to burnt fast. We pack ours fresh in small batches in Portland with nothing added.

Single ingredient: hulled white sesame seeds. No salt, no sugar, no preservatives. Naturally gluten-free and vegan.

Common Questions

How do I toast sesame seeds evenly without burning them?

Use a dry skillet over medium heat, spread the seeds in a thin layer, and keep them moving with a spatula or by shaking the pan. In a few minutes they turn golden and smell nutty. Pull them off the heat and onto a plate the moment they color, since the residual heat of the pan keeps toasting them and tips quickly into burnt.

What do white sesame seeds taste like?

Mild, nutty, and gently sweet, with a soft crunch. Raw they are subtle, almost neutral. Toasting deepens them into a warm, buttery, almost roasted-nut flavor, which is why most recipes call for toasting first. That toasted character is what carries dishes from stir-fries to baked goods.

How do I make tahini from sesame seeds?

Toast the seeds lightly, let them cool, then blend them in a food processor with a little neutral oil until smooth and pourable, scraping down as you go. It takes a few minutes and some patience. Hulled seeds like these give a smoother, less bitter tahini than unhulled, which is why they are the standard choice for it.

Are white and black sesame seeds interchangeable?

They are close but not identical. White (hulled) seeds are milder and smoother, favored for tahini, baking, and delicate dishes. Black sesame is nuttier, more bitter, and bolder in both look and taste. Swap them when you want a different color or a stronger flavor, but expect the dish to shift accordingly.

Are these sesame seeds salt-free?

Yes. This is a single ingredient, hulled white sesame seeds, with no added salt, sugar, or preservatives.
