It produces seeds that are used for food: they can be eaten whole, hulled, dried, toasted &#8230; In short, in practically all ways. In addition, they are an excellent raw material aimed at the extraction of edible oil (a process during which a squeezing residue is obtained that is very similar to hazelnut flour: it is sesame flour). Sesame seed oil (which when refined is light yellow in color, has no odor and has a pleasant taste) is a very important food for Indian and African populations: it has the same value for them as for us the EVO oil &#8211; both in terms of uses and appreciation.<\/p>\n<p>Today, the consumption of sesame seeds and derivatives is constantly growing even in the West, and there are more and more delicious recipes with sesame.<\/p>\n<p>Here are our favorite sesame dessert recipes.<\/p>\n<h2>Sicilian sesame biscuits recipe<\/h2>\n<p>If you love the flavors of Sicily, from wines to granita, without forgetting the almond paste, then you cannot fail to taste the sesame biscuits.<\/p>\n<p>The recipe for Sicilian sesame biscuits (Regina biscuits) is simple, you need:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>500 g of flour 00;<\/li>\n<li>150 g of butter or lard (butter makes them softer, lard more crunchy. You can also use 100 g of butter and 50 g of lard);<\/li>\n<li>150 g of sugar;<\/li>\n<li>150 g of toasted sesame seeds;<\/li>\n<li>30 ml of milk at room temperature;<\/li>\n<li>2 eggs;<\/li>\n<li>1 sachet of vanillin;<\/li>\n<li>5 g of ammonia for sweets;<\/li>\n<li>1 pinch of fine salt.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Toast the sesame seeds in a pan or oven and set aside. Mix the flour, salt, sugar and ammonia for cakes in a bowl, and then add the softened butter (or lard), mixing well. Continue to knead the ingredients and add milk, eggs and vanillin. Mix until you get a smooth and soft dough, which you have to leave to rest in the refrigerator for an hour, wrapped in cling film.<\/p>\n<p>After an hour, remove the dough from the fridge and divide it into small pieces in the shape of cords of about 5 cm. Cover them with sesame on each side, line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the biscuits on top, which must be cooked for 25 minutes at 180 \u00b0 C in a preheated oven. Check the cooking and make sure they are well browned.<\/p>\n<h2>Crunchy sesame recipe<\/h2>\n<p>Not everyone knows, but the sesame brittle recipe is easy and can be made comfortably at home, they serve:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>200 g of sesame seeds;<\/li>\n<li>100 g of honey;<\/li>\n<li>100 g of cane sugar;<\/li>\n<li>50 g of almonds.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Pour the honey into a saucepan, keep the heat very low and let it melt. Then add the sugar, mixing with a wooden spoon. Once it comes to a boil, add the sesame seeds and continue stirring for 5 minutes. Coarsely chop the almonds and add them to the mixture in the saucepan, then cook for 25 minutes over low heat, stirring occasionally. Take a sheet of parchment paper and turn over the preparation, which you need to cover with another sheet. Level the surface with a rolling pin until you get a sheet about 3 mm thick, which you then go to cut into small rectangles. Before tasting, let the sesame bars solidify.<\/p>\n<h2>Sesame ice cream<\/h2>\n<p>The RivaReno ice cream laboratory knows the characteristics of sesame well, and combines it with saffron, creating a unique, refined and delicate taste.
