Ameen Foods Black Sesame Seeds come from the Sesamum indicum plant, originally cultivated in Africa and now grown widely across Asia. Known for their bold flavor and deep black color, these seeds bring both taste and visual contrast to countless dishes.

Compared to white sesame, black sesame seeds have a richer, nuttier, and slightly earthy flavor. They’re a staple in Japanese, Korean, and Chinese cooking, used in sushi, rice bowls, sauces, and desserts. Their toasted aroma and crisp texture also make them perfect for breads, pastries, and crackers, adding color and complexity.

Nutritionally dense, black sesame seeds are packed with calcium, iron, and healthy fats, as well as natural antioxidants that support skin and heart health. They’re a small ingredient with big impact — both for flavor and wellbeing.
