Sesame Seed

Sesame seeds are small oilseeds from the Sesamum plant used whole, toasted, ground into pastes like tahini, or pressed for sesame oil; they’re commonly sprinkled on breads and salads or used in many Middle Eastern and Asian dishes. Users may track sesame seeds to record portion sizes and their contribution to calories, fats, protein, fiber, and micronutrients, or to monitor exposure if managing a sesame allergy.
