Trivia

The history of sesame is long. The ancient Egyptians and Greeks are said to have used the plant. It actually comes from the African tropics, but is now primarily grown in India, China and Egypt.

The sesame plant, which is up to one meter high, resembles an herbaceous version of the foxglove, as its pink to white calyxes hang down. The ripe fruits are brown, 2 to 3 cm long capsules that contain about 80 to 100 yellowish, red or almost black seeds.

To produce the sesame oil, the fruit capsules are dried, the seeds are shaken out and cleaned before we gently cold-press them.
