Sesame seed is an incredibly all-round ingredient. Because of the healthy properties and characteristic taste, it is often used in bread, or as topping in asian dishes. You can simply make your own tahini (sesame paste). Sesame seed contains much dietary fibre, which is important for healthy digestion. It is also very rich in iron and calcium. Iron is especially used for the production of haemoglobin that ensures the transit of oxygen through the blood. Calcium is important for healthy bones. Lastly, the fats in sesame seed are mostly unsaturated fatty acids, and are known for their contribution to lower cholesterol level.
