sesames
Seeds on buns
Sesames is the plural of sesame, the tropical plant cultivated for its oil-rich seeds.
The seeds appear in cooking and baking—sprinkled on buns, pressed into tahini, or used in dishes like sesames scattered over the salad.
Open sesame, from the Arabian Nights, is a command that magically opens doors or barriers.
