Sesame Seeds

To measure 3.5 ounces of sesame seeds in tablespoons, first note that 1 ounce is approximately equal to 2 tablespoons. Therefore, 3.5 ounces would be roughly 7 tablespoons (3.5 x 2 = 7). To ensure accuracy, it’s best to use a kitchen scale if available, as different seeds may have slightly different volumes.

In Gujarati, sesame seeds are called "તલ" (tal). They are commonly used in various dishes and sweets in Gujarati cuisine. Sesame seeds are valued for their nutty flavor and nutritional benefits.

Sesame SD kernels refer to a specific type of sesame seeds that have been processed to create a product with a concentrated flavor and nutritional profile. The "SD" typically stands for "Sesame Dehulled," indicating that the outer hull of the seeds has been removed, resulting in a creamier texture and enhanced taste. These kernels are often used in cooking, baking, and as a garnish due to their rich flavor and health benefits, including being a source of healthy fats, protein, and essential minerals.

Water-damaged sesame seeds are generally not recommended for consumption, as they may harbor mold or bacteria that can be harmful to health. However, if the seeds are only slightly water-damaged and show no signs of spoilage, they can be toasted and used in small amounts for flavoring in non-perishable dishes. It's essential to inspect them carefully and discard any that appear moldy or off in smell. For safety, it's best to err on the side of caution and avoid using damaged seeds altogether.

Sesame seeds are a mixture, not a compound. They consist of various components, including oils, proteins, carbohydrates, and vitamins, which retain their individual properties. In contrast, a compound is formed when two or more elements chemically bond together in a fixed ratio, resulting in new substances with distinct characteristics.

The volume of 100 grams of sesame seeds can vary based on factors like seed size and packing density, but on average, sesame seeds have a density of about 0.5 grams per cubic centimeter. Therefore, 100 grams of sesame seeds would occupy roughly 200 cubic centimeters (cc) or milliliters (ml) of volume.

While I can't provide a specific list of Japanese importers of sesame seeds, you can find detailed information through trade databases, industry reports, or directories such as the Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO) or the Japan Food Industry Association. Additionally, contacting trade associations or attending industry trade shows can help you connect with key players in the sesame seed import market in Japan.

SESAME (Secure European System for Applications in a Multi-vendor Environment) authentication is a protocol designed for secure access control across distributed systems. It uses a combination of Kerberos for ticketing and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) for secure authentication and authorization. When a user requests access, SESAME verifies their identity through a ticketing system while also utilizing digital signatures to ensure the integrity and authenticity of the transaction. This layered approach enhances security by allowing single sign-on capabilities while maintaining robust protection against unauthorized access.

The small black bugs on your dog that are about the size of a sesame seed are likely fleas. Fleas are parasitic insects that feed on the blood of mammals, including dogs. They can cause itching, discomfort, and even lead to more serious health issues if not treated. It's important to consult a veterinarian for proper identification and treatment options.

Once weevils get into sesame seeds or any other food, you cannot remove them.

Weevils are generally smaller than the seeds, so you could try sieving them through a strainer. But you'll still miss some adults, larva and eggs.

Another method might be to try floating them off in water, but that would only work if sesame seeds don't float. It would be intensive work, success is not guaranteed and the seeds would have to be dried.

I think it doesn't matter but if you eat whole flax seeds you have to chew them well.

The outside of flax seed is too hard to break apart by chewing and whole flax seed is not properly digested to get out the nutrients. The recommendation is to use either flax seed oil to use already ground flax seed.

Flax seed oil is derived from flax seed. They both have many benefits of which you can read in the link below. However, flax seed is high in fiber and the oil is not.

Tahini is the ground sesame seed paste which is used in many near and far east recipes.

While I am sure that the buns used by Burger King were made with a specific number of sesame seeds, by the time they are actually presented in a whopper jr. there is no consistency in the number. Since the seeds are placed on top of the bun and not baked inside, they can fall off during the time between baking and actual presentation.

Sesame seeds are a good source of Vitamin E and antioxidants.

They also have a lot of calcium! About 975 mg in every 100 g! That's almost five times the calcium found in 100 g of milk!

Sesame seeds are a very good source of manganese, copper, calcium, magnesium, iron, phosphorus, vitamin B1, zinc, and fiber. In addition, sesame seeds contain two unique substances: sesamin and sesamolin. Both of these substances belong to a group of special beneficial fibers called lignans, which lower cholesterol, prevent high blood pressure, and increase vitamin E supplies. Sesamin has also been found to protect the liver from oxidative damage. Just a quarter-cup of sesame seeds supplies 74.0% of the daily value for copper, 31.6% for magnesium, and 35.1% for calcium. Copper reduces some of the pain and swelling of rheumatoid arthritis because it is important in a number of anti-inflammatory and antioxidant enzymes. In addition, copper plays an important role in the activity of lysyl oxidase, an enzyme needed for the cross-linking of collagen and elastin, the substances that provide structure, strength, and elasticity in blood vessels, bones, and joints. Magnesium prevents airway spasm in asthma; lowers high blood pressure; prevents the blood vessel spasms that trigger migraines; and restores normal sleep patterns in menopausal women. Calcium helps protect colon cells from cancer-causing chemicals; prevents bone loss that can occur as a result of menopause or certain conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis; prevents migraine headaches; and reduces premenstrual symptoms. When the hulls remain on the seeds, one tablespoon of sesame seeds contains about 88 milligrams of calcium. When the hulls are removed, this same tablespoon will contain about 37 milligrams (about 60% less); however, the calcium in the hulls is largely in the form of calcium oxalate, a less absorbable form of calcium than the form found in the kernels, so you would absorb less than the 51 additional milligrams found in the seed hulls. Zinc helps prevent osteoporosis of the hip and spine. Sesame seeds have the highest total phytosterol content of any food (400-413 mg per 100 grams) (100 grams is equivalent to 3.5 ounces.) Phytosterols are compounds in plants that have a chemical structure very similar to cholesterol, and can reduce blood levels of cholesterol, enhance the immune response, and decrease the risk of certain cancers.
