black sesame
Ebony tahini ingredient
Black sesame refers to unhulled sesame seeds that retain their dark outer coating, giving them a deeper, nuttier flavor than white sesame.
Common in East Asian cooking, they appear in desserts, rice balls, and as a topping: black sesame ice cream, black sesame paste.
The seeds are also ground into oil.
