Originating in India, sesame has been known for thousands of years - at least 3,000 according to some sources! It is an annual herbaceous plant, 1 to 1.5 m high, with elongated leaves. From May to July, it produces white or pink flowers grouped in clusters of 2 or 3 in the leaf axils. The fruits are capsule-shaped with several cavities. Sesame is best known as a seed, and it is in these caspules that the seeds are enclosed. There are up to 200 per capsule! Sesame oil is obtained by mechanical cold pressing of the seeds. The seeds can be roasted, but for cosmetic use, it's best to use them as they are, to make the most of all their benefits for the hair and skin. In cooking, it is often used in oriental dishes, but it also has interesting properties for the heart.
