    Description

    Safed til starts mild and nutty, then grows wonderfully fragrant with a gentle toast. Work it into til ladoo and chikki, scatter it over breads, or grind it into chutney and tahini. Keep an eye on the pan while roasting. The aroma tells you when your next spoonful is ready.

    About its origins

    White til is grown in several Indian regions, including Gujarat and Rajasthan. Its gentle nuttiness works in til laddoos, chikki, chutneys and breads.

    Toast till it smells nutty. Not a second more.

    How to use
    1. Toast on low heat, stirring often, until the seeds smell nutty.
    2. Let toasted seeds cool before grinding them or adding them to a dry mixture.
    3. Sprinkle over dishes or use in sweets and pastes as your recipe directs.

    Quick tip: Toast over gentle heat, stirring often, and transfer out of the hot pan once fragrant.

    Use it in

    • Til laddoos and chikki
    • Sesame chutneys and podis
    • Bread and bun toppings
    • Sesame pastes, sauces and dressings
    Ingredients & storage

    IngredientsWhite sesame seeds (Sesamum indicum).

    What it containsSesame seeds naturally contain oil and protein. They also contain plant compounds called lignans, including sesamin and sesamolin. Whole white til adds a gentle bite; grinding it releases the seed oil and helps make a smooth paste.

    StorageStore in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Keep away from moisture and direct sunlight.

    Product FAQs

    A few things you may want to know

    Still have a question? Talk to us.
    Do I need to toast sesame seeds?

    It depends on the recipe. Toasting gives them a fuller nutty aroma, while some baking and paste recipes use them without pre-toasting.

    How do I keep sesame from burning?

    Use low heat and stir often. Take the seeds off the heat when fragrant, as they can brown quickly.

    Can I grind these into a paste?

    Yes. Use a suitable grinder and follow your recipe for the amount of liquid or oil needed.

    Can I use these for til ladoos?

    Yes. Toast them as directed in your ladoo recipe, then combine with the other ingredients.

    When do I add sesame to a salad?

    Add it at the end, just before serving, so the seeds keep their texture against the dressed vegetables.

    How spicy is it?

    White sesame adds a nutty flavour without chilli heat; use seasonings separately to make the finished food spicy.
