Gomasio

Ingredients:
seeds, sesame seeds, whole, dried
salt, table

Directions:
Put the sesame seeds and salt in a large skillet over medium low heat and shake the pan regularly to brown the seeds evenly.
Toast until the seeds are a nice brown.
We like our gomasio well toasted to get a really nice nutty flavor.
Some people dont like it toasted that much.
Its a personal thing, you can decide.
Once youve got the color you want, turn off the burner and let it cool down for about 10 minutes.
If you have a lot of time on your hands, the best way to process the gomasio is to use a mortar and pestle.
I prefer the quick method: put the toasted seeds and salt in the food processor, turn it on and let it go for at least a minute, but you dont want it to turn to paste.
Pulse a few times.
Youll have some whole seeds but most will be ground nicely.
Store in an air tight container.
We use this on top of our rice cream breakfast cereal.
Its also very good on steamed veggies, especially broccoli.
