Sesame: flavouring profile
Sesame, toasted, is one of the most intensely nutty flavours in cooking: the warm, roasted note of toasted seeds and toasted sesame oil, and the rich paste of tahini, so it pairs best with wines that carry their own nutty, yeasty or nutty-sweet character, the match shifting with how sesame is used.
