Equipment

  • Mortar and pestle or spice grinder (for crushing the sesame seeds *optional)
  • 5-oz spice jar or small mason jar (these are the perfect size)

Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
  • 2 sheets nori
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Optional: Partially grind the sesame seeds so you end up with a rough mix of whole sesame seeds and sesame powder.
  • Use a pair of scissors to cut the nori into very thin, short strips. (Skip if using pre-shredded nori.)
  • Mix together the sesame seeds and shredded nori with salt and sugar. Transfer to a spice jar. Always shake well before using.
