Sesame

Simsim is part of the Jelly Traders seed range. Edible seeds can add texture, flavour, plant fats, protein and fibre to meals, but not every seed sold in commerce is intended for eating. The physical label must therefore be checked first to confirm whether the product is food-grade, culinary seed, planting seed or another specialty item.

• 1. Edible variants can add texture and flavour to meals and snacks.
• 2. Many edible seeds provide plant fats, protein and dietary fibre, with amounts varying by seed.
• 3. Useful in baking, porridge, yoghurt, salads, smoothies and toppings where appropriate.
• 4. Easy to portion whole, ground or soaked according to the recipe.
• 5. Dry format is convenient for pantry storage when protected from moisture.
• 6. Separate variants can distinguish food, pack size and processing form where configured.

First confirm from the label that the seed is intended for food. Edible seeds may be sprinkled over meals, ground, soaked, blended or incorporated into baking according to the specific seed and recipe. If the pack identifies the item as planting seed, follow cultivation directions instead and do not use it as food.

Do not consume seed labelled for planting, treatment or another non-food use. Check allergen information, especially for sesame. Some small dry seeds expand when hydrated, so follow pack directions for soaking and preparation. Keep away from moisture and contamination.

• Seed nutrition and safe preparation differ by species. Product-specific label information takes precedence over general catalogue copy.
• Jelly Traders catalogue note: product name, price, stock, pack size and variant data remain controlled by the live database. The physical product label and verified supplier documentation take precedence for ingredients, allergens, serving size, warnings, expiry, origin and regulatory information.
