Japanese cuisine places great emphasis on using the fresh ingredients of the season, this applies to vegetables, fish and shellfish.

Many of the raw materials used in Japanese cuisine, such as fish, seaweed are vegetable are super foods that boost the body with healthy oils, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Japanese food is low in fat and sugar, making it a healthy choice.
This is one of the reasons why the Japanese are the population in the world that live the longest.

The healthy ingredients and raw materials such as miso, tofu, wasabi, seaweed and many others that are fundamental to Japanese cuisine are not used in the same way in other cuisines.

Where to buy black sesame seeds?

Sushi chef & sake sommerlier Zoë Escher
There are more and more people who have noticed black sesame seeds when ordering sushi rolls.

Abroad, black sesame seeds are very common. Several of the Danish sushi restaurants also use black sesame seeds and light sesame seeds mixed together and sprinkled over the sushi rolls.

There is not the big secret behind black sesame seeds. This is not a new variety. It is light sesame seeds that have been colored. Unfortunately, I do not know how they have been colored. Or what has been used to color the sesame seeds.
The taste is the same whether you use light or black sesame seeds.

The reason why some sushi restaurants use a mixture of light and black sesame seeds is because it is decorative and looks great on sushi rolls.
