Exclusive RAW tahini paste made from hand-picked white sesame seeds, providing you with the best quality and taste that can hardly be found elsewhere.
Sesame is grown in various parts of the world, but its origins are associated with the Middle East and Asia, where it is extensively used in traditional cuisine. Sesame itself has a history dating back thousands of years and is among the oldest known oilseed crops globally. They were cultivated and used in culinary and traditional healing practices in various cultures, including ancient Egypt, Babylon, and Rome. These seeds also hold significance in various cultures; for instance, in Hinduism, they are connected to rituals and symbolize celestial power.
In the kitchen, white sesame is often used to add flavor and texture to various dishes. It is used to create tahini paste, a key component in many traditional Middle Eastern and Mediterranean recipes. This paste is also a favorite among vegans and vegetarians due to its rich protein and nutrient content. Sesame seed oil is also used in cosmetics and massage oils for its hydrating and soothing properties.
A completely unique sesame butter with several key features:
- Handcrafted Production - The butter is meticulously crafted in small batches, from harvesting to grinding, with love and care.
- Nut Activation - Sesame seeds are soaked in water for 8 hours, initiating the sprouting process, which neutralizes inhibitors and antinutritional phytates, making the seeds more digestible and increasing the bioavailability of vitamins and minerals.
- RAW Quality - The seeds are processed at low temperatures (up to 42°C), ensuring that all the essential nutrients and delicate sesame flavors are preserved. This means you can enjoy the full range of sesame's flavors and beneficial compounds.
- Vegan and 100% Natural - The butter is vegan and contains no additional ingredients such as palm oil, preservatives, or sugar.
- Local Production - Local nut production and processing minimize long-distance transportation, reducing the environmental impact associated with shipping and maintaining product freshness. It also supports the local economy, creates job opportunities, gives producers control over production, and increases transparency throughout the process.
- Regenerative Agroforestry - The Pemla company, which produces nut butters and collaborates with crop growers, adheres to a regenerative agroforestry approach. This approach involves a modern perspective on agriculture and forestry, with the aim of restoring and improving soil and ecosystems. It emphasizes sustainable soil care, including erosion reduction, soil preservation, and crop diversification. This involves practices such as crop rotation, composting, and limiting the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. It also places importance on sustainable water management and biodiversity conservation in forestry, with the goal of supporting local communities and social justice.
