Sticky Keto Sesame Chicken Wings

Tasty marinaded chicken wings – not sticky, just delicious and succulent. A perfect keto snack when you do not want too much for dinner.

This was super simple and really easy to make the marinade. I left the wings marinading in a glass tupperware container on the counter-top for 3 hours. Make sure you do not get tempted to save the marinade because it smells to die for but remember it has had raw chicken sitting in it for a long time. I did not make the tahini dip purely because I did not have any tahini. However I do not believe the wings required a dip, they were so flavorsome and moist.

The psychology of crunchy sesame seeds

Sesame seeds are a great source of nutrients like calcium, protein and zinc. Additionally, they have an irresistibly crunchy texture that makes them popular as a topping for dishes such as salads, stir-fries and noodles. But the psychology behind why sesame seeds are so attractive goes beyond their taste and nutrition. According to food experts, the crunchy texture of sesame seeds triggers a satisfying sensory experience that helps to reduce stress and create feelings of calmness. The nutty flavor of the seeds is also known to evoke positive emotions such as contentedness and pleasure. Studies have even suggested that people associate the distinctive aroma of sesame seeds with happy childhood memories. Meanwhile, the visual appeal of sesame seeds plays a role in its popularity too. The tiny black and white particles sprinkled liberally on dishes can create an attractive aesthetic that is pleasing to the eye. Furthermore, their small size makes them versatile enough to be used as decoration for various types of cuisine – from salads and sushi to desserts and other baked goods.

How is cold-pressed virgin sesame seed oil made?

Virgin cold pressed sesame oil is made by pressing the highest quality sesame seeds to extract their purest and most natural oil. The process begins with selecting the best quality organic sesame seeds, which are then washed and dried before being put through a special cold-pressing technique. Cold-pressing involves using mechanical presses that do not involve the use of extreme heat or chemicals, preserving the oil’s natural nutrients and flavor. This method also produces a higher yield of oil than other methods such as hot-pressing. After pressing, the sesame oil is filtered through a fine mesh to remove any impurities or solids before being packaged and ready for consumption. Packed with valuable vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, virgin cold pressed sesame oil is a nutritious and delicious addition to any dish. Its light nutty flavor adds depth and complexity to various dishes ranging from salads and stir-fries to dips and dressings.
