The Precious Seeds of a Versatile Plant
Sesame seeds come from the oilseed plant Sesamum indicum, mainly cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions around the world. This herbaceous plant belongs to the Pedaliaceae family. Sesame seeds form in capsules that burst when mature, releasing the small oval seeds inside. Sesame seed varieties can vary in color, ranging from white to black, brown, and golden. Sesame is cultivated for its oil-rich seeds, which are used in various cuisines for their characteristic nutty flavor and nutritional benefits. These seeds are an important source of nutrients such as essential fatty acids, proteins, fibers, vitamins, and minerals, contributing to a healthy and balanced diet.
The Journey of the Sesame Seed
Originating from Africa and Asia, these small oval seeds have been cultivated and used in food, medicine, and religious rituals in various ancient civilizations. Ancient Egyptians considered them symbols of vitality and prosperity, using them to produce sesame oil and paste. Sesame seeds were also valued in ancient Mesopotamia, where they were an integral part of cuisine and pharmacopoeia. Over time, sesame was traded along ancient trade routes, including the Silk Road, thus spreading its use across Asia, the Middle East, and Europe.
