White Sesame seeds are flat, pear-shaped seeds with an off-white color. The seeds measure approximately 3 millimeters in length and are bulbous at one end, tapering down into a rounded point. The seeds can be easily crushed or ground in hand and have a high oil content, creating a paste. White Sesame seeds have almost no aroma and an incredibly delicate, nutlike flavor with a mildly sweet finish. The seeds also offer a slight crunch when consumed, which is satisfying on the palate.
