I love sesame. Its healthy, rich in calcium and good quality fats, as well as other acids which are great for the system.. but I forget why.
I fisrt came across sesame as a child on holiday in Greece, where we used to buy these bars of honeyed sesame.. mm I already loved those, even though hey were a bit "different" from Swiss food..
And now I love ground sesame and salt sprinkled on food, sesame paste to make tahini, or the japanese way of mixing ground sesame into boiled spinach. Incidentally they also use black sesame sprinkled on white sticky rice..

When I make oriental salad with greens, mandarin oranges, chicken, etc, I use sesame seed dressing on it and sprinkle it with extra sesame seeds.
When I make a stirfry, I use part olive oil and a little sesame oil. Then when stirfry is done, I put more sesame seed oil on it, along with oyster sauce. Yum

sprinkled on stuff before baking but after basting. for example spanokopita or pies etc I have know one person to have a severe allergy to sesame seeds so i guess it's always worth checking...
