Gomasio (Salt Substitute)
Ingredients
- 1/8 cup sea salt
- 1 cup raw sesame seeds, unhulled
Instructions
- Grind salt into a powder with a mortar and pestle. Toast the salt in a heavy frying pan until it shines; remove to another container.
- Roast sesame seeds in frying pan until they are lightly toasted, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon to prevent burning. Grind seeds coarsely in a mortar.
- Add salt and continue grinding until most, but not all, of the seeds are pulverized. The idea is for each grain of salt to be coated with sesame oil.
- Store in the refrigerator or a cool place.
- Use whenever salt is called for.
