About Black sesame paste

Black sesame paste is a rich, velvety spread made from roasted black sesame seeds, commonly used in Asian cuisines, especially Chinese, Japanese, and Korean cooking. This nutrient-dense paste is packed with essential vitamins and minerals such as calcium, magnesium, iron, and B vitamins, making it beneficial for bone health, energy, and overall vitality. Black sesame seeds are also high in antioxidants and healthy fats, which can support heart health and combat inflammation. The paste has a naturally nutty and slightly sweet flavor, often enjoyed in desserts, sauces, or as a filling in pastries. However, it can be calorie-dense and may contain added sugar or oil depending on preparation, so moderation is key. Black sesame paste combines flavor with nutritional benefits, offering versatility for both culinary and health enthusiasts.
