Description

Unroasted organic black sesame seeds can be eaten completely. In fact, raw black sesame seeds generally have higher nutritional value because they retain more nutrients like vitamin E, B vitamins, protein, calcium, iron, and zinc.

If you want to enhance the flavor and crispiness of black sesame seeds, you can choose to roast them, but be careful not to over-roast, as this can intensify the bitterness.

After purchasing, store in a cool and dry place.
