Black Sesame Seeds

Sesame seeds

Black and white sesame seeds are high in amino acid content. They contain essential fats, including polyunsaturated fatty acids and several Omega-3 oils. These seeds are incredibly nutritious, providing important minerals for daily needs. Just 1 oz (28 grams) of toasted seeds supplies approximately 25% of the adult daily recommended amounts of calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, copper, and manganese.

Both adults and children should include foods rich in Omega-3 fatty acids in their diets. Examples of Omega-3-rich foods include chia seeds, flaxseeds, walnuts, and canola oil. Sesame seeds are commonly used in Asian cooking and are often sprinkled on sautéed vegetables. Tahini, or sesame paste, makes an excellent addition to salad dressings and is a key ingredient in Middle Eastern dishes like hummus.
