YOUR PERSONALISED FOOD GUIDE · S1
Explore where sesame connect to local dishes and ingredients, recognise useful names and prepare questions for your next meal.
Typical recipes and products vary. This guide supports your research and conversation; it does not verify an individual meal.
Read the complete meal: its base, sauces, stock, seasonings, coatings, garnishes and preparation. A familiar dish name does not establish the recipe used for the serving in front of you.
This guide keeps every selected food together. A recorded connection identifies something worth checking; a missing connection leaves the ingredient status unknown.

|---|---|
| The main ingredients | Check the base, filling, noodles, dough, batter or primary protein against sesame. |
| What is mixed in | Check sauces, stocks, premixes, seasoning blends, marinades and bought-in components. |
| How it is prepared | Discuss shared oil, water, equipment, surfaces and utensils separately from recipe composition. |
| Your selection | Type | Recorded coverage |

Western variation in breads, snacks and dairy: Gujarati dishes include dhokla, thepla, handvo, khandvi and undhiyu; some versions use yoghurt, sesame, peanuts or wheat flour. Maharashtra and Goa dishes include pav-based foods and seafood preparations. Ask whether pav is wheat-based, whether dabeli masala contains peanut or sesame, and whether a snack is fried in oil also used for other items.
Street snack stall or market counter: For samosa, singara, jalebi, vada pav or dabeli, ask what flour is in the pastry or pav, whether peanut or sesame is in the filling or masala, and whether the same oil, tongs or tray handles other foods.
Accommodation or packaged-food shop: When buying spice mixes, papad, chutney, biscuits or packaged sweets, read the complete ingredient list. Ask about wheat, sesame, peanut, milk, egg, mustard and possible cross-contact, and keep the unopened packaging available for checking.

| Explain the complete list | State sesame together and explain in your own words whether each is an allergy, intolerance or another requirement. |
| Check the recipe | Ask a chef, manager or another person who can verify every ingredient and bought-in component. |

A useful questionCan we check the ingredients in the prepared sauce, stock or mix?
TRY THIS“I need to avoid sesame. Could you check every ingredient in this dish, including sauces, stock, seasonings and garnishes, and tell me how it will be prepared?”
An honest inability to confirm is useful information. Ask which other item the kitchen can explain completely, or choose another venue or packaged product whose ingredients you can verify.
