So, what is σουσάμι?
Sesame seeds, or "σουσάμι" in Greek, are a versatile ingredient used in many cuisines around the world. These tiny seeds have a nutty flavor with a delicate crunch and can be used to enhance both savory and sweet dishes. They are rich in essential nutrients such as calcium, magnesium, and iron, making them a great addition to a healthy diet. Toasted sesame seeds are often used to create tahini, a creamy paste commonly used in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine. Sesame seeds can also be ground into a paste and used to make desserts such as halva or added to salads, stir-fries, and baked goods for an extra burst of flavor and texture.
