Toasted Sesame Seeds

Toasted sesame seeds are used in a variety of Asian foods. So they're good to have on hand if you do a lot of this type of cooking. They are super easy to make so even if you "run out," if you have some raw sesame seeds on hand you can toast them up in just a few minutes.

Step 1.

Put some sesame sees



As they're cooking, stir with a wooden spoon or agitate the pan a bit so they don't burn. Doing this will also help them to toast more evenly.


This is what they look like when they are raw:


This is what they look like when they are toasted:


Once they're toasted you can transfer them to a bowl to cool or use them hot. I stuck mine in a little Tupperware and put it in the fridge.

Like I said, super easy.

Enjoy!
