You asked for great sesame seeds, so we scoured the globe for the best we could find! Our raw, unhulled sesame seeds hail from the cradle of sesame agriculture in Turkey, where a unique climate lends them their beautiful golden color and distinctive nutty aroma. Sprinkle them over noodles and rice, mix them into salad dressings and add them as a fragrant finishing touch to stir fries. They lend a deep natural sweetness and satisfying crunch to everything they touch. These Sultan Sesame Seeds are grown from heirloom plants that thrive in rich soil, in a region home to a historic sultan’s fortress called Kal'a-i Sultaniye. Nature and nurture have combined to give them an exceptionally high sesame oil content—that’s the volatile compound that makes them so nutty and rewarding to nibble on. You can grind them into terrific tahini or simply toast them to bring out more of their flavor. And of course, top them on anything that goes into the oven, whether sweet or savory. These seeds belong on all your breads, cookies, cakes and pastries.
