Sesame seeds, known as Til in Hindi, are tiny oil seeds native to tropical regions. They are harvested from the Sesamum indicum plant and commonly used across Indian households either raw or roasted. These seeds impart a nutty flavor and crunchy texture to foods such as ladoos, chutneys, and snacks.
They are rich in protein and dietary fiber, making them a valuable ingredient in vegetarian and vegan diets. Traditionally, they are consumed during festivals and also as a daily garnish in cooking.
Sesame seeds are vegan and do not contain common allergens except for sesame itself. They are best stored in airtight containers to maintain freshness and prevent rancidity.
