Gomashio




Source of Recipe


Donna Rollison


Recipe Introduction


From Flavors Magazine - Whole Foods


List of Ingredients




1 cup sesame seeds, preferably unshelled
1 teaspoon fine sea salt


Recipe



Toast sesame seeds in a skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly for 10 to 15 minutes or until they are toasted and take on an orange hue.

Remove to a plate to cool.

Add salt to the same dry skillet.

Stir constantly, toasting the salt for about 3 to 5 minutes.

Add salt to sesame seeds.

When cooled, transfer the mixture to a food processor and process to a powdered consistency, breaking the seeds up as much as possible, but stopping before mixture forms a paste.

Store the gomashio in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a month.

Author's Note: This traditional Japanese seasoning of toasted sesame seeds and sea salt adds a burst of nutty, salty flavor to any dish. Try over rice and vegetables.

Makes about 1 3/4 cups
