Semi di sesamo bianco tostati, Mitake, 45 g

Sesame seeds are popular in all Asian cuisine and are a common ingredient in various Japanese dishes too. They can be used in both sweet or savoury dishes to give a delicious roasted, nutty flavour. White sesame seeds have been hulled, and the removal of this outer husk removes a layer of bitterness and allows for a more mellow savoury flavour.
