1. Product Overview
Black Sesame Seeds (Sesamum indicum) are small, flat, oil-rich seeds known for their deep, nutty flavor and exceptional nutritional profile. Unlike white sesame seeds, black sesame seeds retain their hull, enhancing their flavor and increasing their content of antioxidants, calcium, and dietary fiber. They are widely used in Asian, Middle Eastern, and Indian cuisines, as well as in traditional medicine.
As a trusted exporter based in Gujarat, India, we supply premium-grade black sesame seeds that are meticulously cleaned, sorted, and hygienically packed to ensure optimal freshness, purity, and taste. Our seeds are suitable for culinary, medicinal, and industrial applications.
