AVOID AVOID AVOID. Even if I were given this for free, I would not take it. I was lured into buying this product by the packaging. The sesame paste looked so rich, I thought I could stir it into some ice cream at home.
This is the actual product. That is NOT good eats!
Being the frugal gal that I am, I feel a need to incorporate this into something worth eating. I used the powder as flour, and introduced it into a bread recipe. It tasted quite nice. My bread had a nice mild, sweet sesame seed taste and the floury, pasty texture was baked out of it. (Sorry, no photo).
