About Sesame seed bun

A sesame seed bun is a soft, bread-based product commonly used in burgers and sandwiches across various cuisines, particularly in American fast food and barbecue culture. Made from wheat flour, water, yeast, sugar, salt, and sometimes enriched with eggs or butter, its golden, lightly toasted surface is sprinkled with sesame seeds for added crunch and nutty flavor. Sesame seeds are a source of healthy fats, protein, and several vitamins and minerals such as calcium and magnesium. However, the bun itself often contains refined flour, which provides simple carbohydrates and lower fiber content, making it less satiating compared to whole-grain alternatives. While sesame seed buns add texture and flavor to meals, moderation is advised as they may be calorie-dense depending on additional ingredients like sugar or oils used in preparation. For a healthier choice, opt for whole-grain varieties while preserving their classic taste and versatility.
