Description
Add a professional finish and a gentle nutty crunch to your menu with Quality White Sesame Seeds. Distributed by ChickenPieces.com from our Calgary logistics hub, this 2.27 kg (5 lbs) bulk bag is the definitive choice for professional chefs and industrial bakers across Canada. These hulled seeds are prized for their uniform color and clean flavor, making them a versatile "blank canvas" for both savory and sweet applications. Because they lack the fibrous outer hull, they offer a lighter "snap" and a more refined mouthfeel, perfect for delicate pastries or as a garnish on high-end plating.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between white and brown sesame seeds?
White sesame seeds have been "hulled," meaning the outer skin has been removed. This makes them whiter, milder in flavor, and slightly softer than unhulled brown seeds.
Should I toast these before use?
While they are ready to use raw, toasting them for 2–3 minutes in a dry pan over medium heat will significantly enhance their nutty aroma and provide a golden color.
Are these suitable for making tahini?
Yes! White sesame seeds are the preferred choice for traditional, smooth, and creamy tahini paste.
Is sesame an allergen?
Yes. Sesame is a priority allergen in Canada. Ensure proper storage and handling to prevent cross-contamination in your facility.
What is the shelf life?
When stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry place, they stay fresh for 6–12 months. Refrigeration can extend their shelf life up to 2 years by preventing the natural oils from going rancid.
Are these seeds chemically hulled?
Quality Sesame Seeds are processed using modern mechanical hulling techniques to ensure a clean finish without sacrificing the nutritional integrity of the seed.
Can I use these for baking "Everything" bagels?
Absolutely. They are a core component of the "Everything" spice mix, pairing perfectly with poppy seeds, garlic, and onion flakes.
