Eastern cultures rarely use plain salt directly on food. Condiments like gomasio are used at the table. Made popular in America by George Ohsawa who introduced macrobiotics here, he urged the use of gomasio to replace table salt because American’s are over salted. In additions to enhanced taste and reduced sodium intake, the sesame of gomasio is a valuable nutritional upgrade. Sesame is the oldest known herbaceous plant grown for its seed. It originated in Africa and was called ‘benniseed’ and ‘sim-sim'. Sesame was in great demand and widely traded throughout prehistory. It has been an important food in Mediterranean and Eastern civilizations for millennia. The expression, “open sesame” suggests entrance into splendor and abundance from the sesame seed pods that audibly pop open when they dry and broadcast their seed. Eden Sea Salt is triple sea water washed until white. It is from historic, environmentally protected salt marshes in southern Portugal that the Phoenicians used as far back as 12,000 BC.
