Otogi Roasted Black Sesame Seeds 120g

Bokkeum-kkae (볶음깨), or roasted sesame seeds, are a fundamental ingredient in Korean cuisine, used as a garnish and flavouring. These black sesame seeds from Otogi have been carefully roasted to develop a deep, nutty, and slightly earthy flavour with a satisfyingly crisp texture. They are an essential finishing touch for countless Korean dishes, adding visual appeal and a distinctive taste to everything from seasoned vegetables (namul) and rice bowls (bibimbap) to soups and grilled meats. For best results, lightly crush the seeds just before sprinkling over your food to release their full aroma and flavour. Storing them in an airtight container in a cool, dark place will preserve their freshness. These seeds are a simple way to add an authentic Korean pantry staple to your kitchen, suitable for anyone looking to explore traditional Korean flavours.
