Product Description
FitTree's Premium Sesame Seeds are selected from crops known for their rich aroma and uniform size. We offer a comprehensive range to suit diverse industrial needs: Natural Sesame Seeds: Unprocessed and rich in minerals, retaining their natural outer husk for a satisfying crunch. Hulled Sesame Seeds: The skin is mechanically removed and the seed is "Auto-Dried" to create a pristine, pearly-white seed with a softer texture, ideal for high-end baking and pastes. Black Sesame Seeds: Prized for their intense flavor and traditional medicinal value in Asian cuisines.
At Fittree International, quality is assured through our advanced Sortex and Auto-Dry cleaning process. This ensures our seeds are free from silica, dust, and immature grains.
