2014, what a year! Being able to share our passion for

sesame has truly been an amazing

experience. As we reflect back on

the past year, we have so much to be

grateful for— rebranding our company,

expanding our product line (Soom

Chocolate Spread!), launching a food

blog (soomfoods.com/recipes), growing

our community and meeting so many

wonderful people at events, markets,

retailers and online.

It felt natural to dedicate a cookbook

to our favorite ingredient— SESAME—

and highlight its flavorful role in savory

and sweet dishes.

welcome

We’ve curated recipes and food

photography from a talented group

of chefs and food bloggers, and

we are excited to showcase their

creativity alongside some of our

own creations. Each recipe is

credited with the contributor’s name

and Instagram handle that both link

to their respective sites.

This book is divided into three

sections: Snacks, Meals and Desserts.

All of the recipes are vegetarian-

friendly, delicious and nutritious.

We hope you’re hungry!

We love sesame.We are three sisters Amy, Jackie and Shelby who were born into a family of food business-owners and entrepreneurs, and all share a passion for healthy lifestyles and delicious food. We founded Soom Foods in 2013 after we were introduced to Ethiopian tahini by Jackie’s husband Omri, an Israeli tahini expert who has been in the industry for almost 10 years.

While spending time together in Israel, Omri’s mother baked a delicious carrot cake (recipe on page 26) to end an epic family meal. Curious about how she incorporated such a rich, nutty flavor into the recipe, we asked “Why is this so good?” and Omri’s mother responded, “It’s tahini! Tahini isn’t just used for hummus, you know...”

What started with a love of a delicious product that had no comparison in the United States, has since turned into an obsession. As we have learned more about sesame, its versatility and its nutrition, Soom Foods has a developed a bold mission to introduce the next American superfood through our assorted Soom Sesame Dips and Spreads.

This book highlights the versatility of sesame by compiling our favorite Soom recipes from the past year. We are inspired and hope you are too. Thank you for being part of our Soom family!

Sesame is a superfood.

Sesame is an ancient seed. It is one of the oldest known crops,

dating back 3,000 years. Sesame has

a rich history. It was one of the first

crops processed for oil, as well as

one of the earliest condiments used.

Sesame seeds come from a flowering

plant that can survive harsh growing

conditions. Its pods burst open when

it reaches it maturity, hence the term

“Open Sesame!”

Among other reputable sources

that sing the praises of sesame,

Prevention Magazine named sesame

one of 14 Superfoods of 2014.

Sesame seeds are rich in essential

nutrients and vitamins— Protein,

Calcium, Iron, Fiber, Omega 3 + 6,

Magnesium, Zinc, B-vitamins and

Vitamin E— making sesame truly a

super seed!

2 Tbsp olive oil

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Slice the squash in half, scoop out the seeds, brush the inner

surface with 1 tablespoon olive oil, and season with cinnamon,

salt and pepper.

Put the squash in the oven for 40 to 50 minutes, flipping half-

way through.

While the squash is baking, heat a large pot over medium heat.

Add the millet and dry toast it for 4 to 5 minutes, making sure

it doesn’t burn.

After toasted, add the vegetable stock and 1/2 tsp of salt to the

pot (it will bubble) and increase the heat to high and bring the

pot to a boil.

Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, add the vegan butter and

place a lid on the pot for 15 minutes.

After 15 minutes, take the pot off of the heat and let sit (with

the lid on) for 10 minutes.

Then heat a large skillet over medium high heat with 1 Tbsp of

olive oil. Add the green beans and season with cinnamon, salt

and pepper.

Sauteé the beans for 5 to 7 minutes.

Once the beans are finished, begin assembling the salad.

Slice the squash into cubes (discarding the skin), chop the

beans, and mix with the millet.

Then add the raisins, walnuts, and hemp seeds. Mix well.

Finally, drizzle the salad with Soom Tahini.
