It's a first appearance in the Hello Fresh shopping list for black sesame seeds this week! Here’s what you need to know: Black sesame seeds aren't a toasted version of the ones you normally see - they're actually just sesame seeds with their jackets still on! Black sesame seeds have a lot more calcium in them than white seeds. And lastly, we're told that the famous phrase 'Open Sesame' from Ali Baba and the 40 Thieves is a reference to ripe sesame seeds popping out of their shells. Dinner and useful trivia... #winning.
