Roasted Sesame Seeds(볶은깨)


Roast sesame seeds are my favourite decoration and seasonning along with baked seaweed crumbs. Korean people use roasted sesame seeds as we believe it gives more flavour than the raw seeds. It is used in most of Korean Salad and decoration for any food. You can buy it any Korean supermarket. If you can't find it don't worry. It is easy to make.

Instruction
Roast raw sesame seeds until brown on high heat. Once the pan gets burning high lower the heat to medium high and keep stiring the sesame seeds.

Tips
- If you have the raw sesame seeds that have some dirt then you need to wash them and get the dirt out. Then before roasting dry the seeds so that you can save the time.
- You'd better to use a deep frying pan that is too old to use for frying, as it gets quite hot and the bottom of the pan gets a bit burnt.
- Make it in a big batch and keep it in an air tight bottle in the room teperature. It can be kept more than two months that way.
