Products classified under HTS 1207.40.00.90
Hulled White Sesame Seeds
Hulled white sesame seeds (Sesamum indicum) are sesame seeds with the outer hull removed, resulting in a lighter color and milder flavor. They are classified under HTS 1207.40.00.90 as 'other' sesame seeds, distinct from black sesame seeds in 1207.40.00.40, and used in baking, toppings, and tahini production.
Natural Unhulled Sesame Seeds
Natural unhulled sesame seeds retain their outer hull, providing higher fiber and calcium content, ideal for roasting or oil pressing. Classified under HTS 1207.40.00.90 as 'other' sesame seeds, they differ from hulled or black varieties.
Toasted Sesame Seeds (Raw)
Lightly toasted sesame seeds that remain raw and unbroken, enhancing flavor for culinary use without full cooking. They fall under HTS 1207.40.00.90 as 'other' sesame seeds since minimal processing does not alter their raw oil seed status.
