Sesame flour is a gluten-free flour alternative made from ground sesame seeds. It has a slightly nutty and earthy flavor, making it a versatile ingredient in both sweet and savory dishes. The texture is fine and powdery, and the color is typically a light tan or cream color. It's a great option for those with gluten sensitivities or allergies, as well as anyone looking to add a unique flavor and nutritional boost to their baking and cooking. When using sesame flour, it's important to note that it absorbs more liquid than wheat flour, so adjustments to recipes may be necessary. It offers a good source of protein, fiber, and healthy fats.

Sesame flour is susceptible to rancidity due to its high oil content. To maintain freshness and prevent spoilage, store sesame flour in an airtight container in a cool, dark, and dry place. For longer storage, refrigerate it to extend its shelf life by several months. Freezing can also preserve it for a year or more, ensuring the flour remains flavorful and nutritious. Always check for any off odors before use.
