White Sesame Seeds

Specialty Food Source White Sesame Seeds are whole white sesame seeds packed in 20 oz, 5 lb and 50 lb sizes. They are stocked for bakeries, bagel shops, restaurants and home cooks who want a mild, nutty flavor and delicate crunch that toasts beautifully: top hamburger buns, bagels, breadsticks and Italian breads, coat chicken and tuna, finish stir-fries and sushi, or blend into tahini, halva and dressings.

How kitchens use white sesame seeds

Brush buns and bagels with egg wash or water and press the seeds on before baking so they hold; toast them dry in a skillet until golden to bring out the flavor for salads, noodles and rice bowls; or grind toasted seeds into tahini for hummus, dressings and halva. The 50 lb bag is the bakery and commissary size; 5 lb and 20 oz packs suit restaurants and home kitchens. Store sealed in a cool, dry place and refrigerate opened bulk bags in warm months.

Pair with black sesame seeds for everything bagels and two-tone garnishes. Browse more toppings and mix-ins, our bulk ingredients, or Asian ingredients. Ships nationwide from our Brockton, MA warehouse; free local delivery on qualifying orders across Eastern Massachusetts and New England.
