Black Sesame Tahini made by Better than Roasted is sure to become a favorite combined with raw honey, spread on a raw cracker or vegetable slice, or eaten by the spoonful right out of the jar! Made from organic unhulled black sesame seeds, this rich, luscious spread is a glorious, shining black. An excellent source of calcium and B vitamins, black sesame seeds are used in Traditional Chinese Medicine for mitigating premature gray hair, and to nourish and fortify the liver and kidneys. These nutrient-dense seeds are also said to help blurred vision, tinnitus, and dizziness. With a rich taste and smooth texture, this Black Sesame Tahini prepared by Blue Mountain Organics is also a nutritional powerhouse.

Better than Roasted Black Sesame Tahini enhances the therapeutic benefits of raw black sesame seeds to a higher level, converting nutrient-dense seeds into a delicious, thick, raw spread. The BTR process begins with raw, whole, certified organic black sesame seeds which are repeatedly hand-sorted through all four steps of the production process. Soaking the seeds initiates germination and removes naturally occurring, bitter-tasting phytates, which have been shown to inhibit digestion as well as the absorption of some nutrients. This step is especially important with black sesame seeds, as many of their healing properties are concentrated in the black outer hull. This dedication to soaking and rinsing the seeds actually helps to enhance the absorption of the vitamins and minerals present in BTR Black Sesame Tahini.

After sorting, soaking, and rinsing, the black sesame seeds are then dried at 108 degrees Fahrenheit or below, which protects vital enzymes and nutrients and maintains the raw, live nature of this nutritional powerhouse. Foods high in live enzymes require less of our own digestive enzymes, helping us to conserve enzyme energy and increase bio-availability of nutrients. The proprietary four-fold, four day, quality control process yields fresh, sweet and crisp black sesame seeds. Once the sorting, germinating, and drying are complete, the black sesame seeds are slowly ground into a smooth paste, producing a truly raw black sesame tahini with no added oil. The BTR process creates a smooth, delicious Black Sesame Tahini which is easier to digest, offering superior nutritional value than a conventionally ground nut butters.
