Last time I wrote about the nutrition values of sesame seeds (Sesame seeds make you healthier and prettier), but I didn't suggest ways to eat them, and I do think it's odd to eat them just like that...Thus, I did a small search online, and I found this on the net (mainly Wiki):
- Breads, including bagels and the tops of hamburger buns.
- Baked into crackers, often in the form of sticks.
- Sprinkled onto some sushi style foods.
- Whole seeds are found in many salads and baked snacks as well in Japan.
- Tan and black sesame seed varieties are roasted and used for making the flavoring gomashio.
- In Greece seeds are used in cakes, while in Togo, seeds are a main soup ingredient.
- The seeds are also eaten on bread in Sicily and France (called "ficelle sésame", sesame thread).
- Sesame (benne) seed cookies and wafers.
- East Asian cuisines, like Chinese cuisine use sesame seeds and oil in some dishes, such as dim sum, sesame seed balls (traditional Chinese: 麻糰; pinyin: mátuǎn or 煎堆; Cantonese: jin deui).
- A Hong Kong snack called "Cheong Fun", and it looks like this: (very yummy!) Lots of sesame seeds sprinkled on top!
So just take your pick, live a healthy life!
Be Happy
Be Pretty
Be the Beautiful One
