Recipe Summary Gomasio (Sesame Salt)
Gomasio is a Japanese condiment used for vegetables or rice. It adds flavor but also vital nutrients. I love it on onigiri. Use immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 1 month.Ingredients | Salt Kringler2 teaspoons coarse sea salt½ cup white sesame seeds½ cup black sesame seedsDirectionsPlace a cast iron or heavy-bottomed stainless steel pan over medium heat. Add salt. Stir until heated through, about 1 minute. Pour salt into a mortar. Add sesame seeds to the pan. Stir constantly with a wooden spoon or spatula until seeds are fragrant and starting to crack. Test if the seeds are ready using the back of a stainless steel spoon; they will be dry, not wet.Pour the toasted seeds into the mortar. Allow to cool slightly. Place the mortar at hip level, preferably while seated. Grind with a pestle until the seeds have opened and the salt pulverizes; the finished mixture should resemble rough sand.Avoid using a nonstick pan to toast the salt and sesame seeds.Info | Salt Kringlerprep: 5 mins cook: 5 mins additional: 5 mins total: 15 mins Servings: 48 Yield: 1 cup
