A clear, approachable guide to the world of sesame, from halva and
tahini to togarashi, gomasio, and furikake, with 100 vegetarian-forward
recipes, from the co-founder of popular tahini outfit Seed+Mill, based
in New York City’s iconic Chelsea Market. With its delicious nutty
taste, nutritional density, and long shelf life, the sesame seed is a
tiny ingredient with an enormous cultural impact and a deeply rich
history. In Sesame, Rachel Simons, co-founder of Seed + Mill, a popular
tahini and halva spot in New York City's Chelsea Market, celebrates the
evolution, history, and diversity of this classic ingredient. Whether
it's in the form of a seed, tahini (a ground sesame paste), sesame oil,
or halva (a soft, fudge-like candy made from sesame paste), readers
will learn to incorporate sesame in 100 traditional and modern global
recipes, including:
• Sweet & Salty Sesame Challah
• Pear and Pistachio Breakfast Loaf with Sesame Streusel
• Radicchio Tahini Caesar (The Ultimate Date Night Salad)
• Lemony Orecchiette with Sesame Pangrattato
• Gomasio-Crusted Salmon Skewers

Through vibrant photography, evocative storytelling, and contributions
from a slate of noted chefs and food luminaries across the country,
including David Lebovitz, Yossy Arefi, and Zoë François, Sesame is a
loving culinary tribute to the sesame seed: how it has transformed
dishes, how it has been translated by different culinary cultures, and
how it has tied people and places together through generations.
