About Sesame sauce

Sesame sauce is a creamy and flavorful condiment made from ground sesame seeds, typically combined with ingredients like sesame oil, garlic, soy sauce, sugar, or vinegar. Originating from East Asian and Middle Eastern cuisines, it is widely used in dishes such as stir-fries, salads, noodle bowls, and dipping sauces. Rich in healthy fats, sesame sauce is an excellent source of essential nutrients like calcium, magnesium, and protein, which contribute to bone health and muscle function. Its high content of antioxidants, such as sesamol and sesamin, helps combat free radicals and supports heart health. However, it can be calorie-dense and may contain added sugars or sodium depending on preparation, which could pose concerns for individuals monitoring their intake. Opting for homemade versions allows for better control over its nutritional content while enjoying its nutty, rich flavor and versatile culinary applications.
