Kent Susamli Sesame Sticks 50g (1.8oz)

Kent Susamlı Sesame Sticks are 50g of Turkish toasted sesame-coated breadstick-style crackers — small, crispy wheat sticks covered in roasted sesame seeds, produced by Kent, the Turkish confectionery and snack company, in the format that draws on the Turkish and Middle Eastern tradition of sesame-based savoury snacks that extends from the simit bread ring to the sesame-dusted crackers found at every Turkish pastry counter. Kent is a major Turkish confectionery brand producing chocolate, candy, and savoury snack products that supply Turkish and Middle Eastern specialty stores worldwide — the sesame sticks sit in the Kent savoury snack range as the product that draws on Turkey's deep sesame-seed tradition, connecting the snack shelf to the simit bread culture that defines Turkish street food and the sesame-rich pantry that Turkish baking relies on. Sesame is fundamental to Turkish and broader Middle Eastern food culture: the seed that coats the iconic Istanbul simit, that goes into the tahini paste used from hummus to halva, that appears on Turkish bread, börek, and pastry as the most characteristic seed of the Turkish baker — and the sesame stick format delivers that roasted sesame flavour in a portable, snackable form. Eat as a savoury snack alongside cheese, olives, and Turkish white cheese in a mezze spread, serve with a glass of Turkish tea at a gathering, use as a cocktail snack alongside wine or beer, or buy as the sesame cracker that carries the unmistakable toasted-sesame flavour of the Turkish bakery into an everyday snack format.
