Instructions
Small batch (2 portions)
- Add 2 tbsp white sesame seeds to a large dry pan.
- Toast the sesame seeds over a medium-high heat until fragrant and slightly golden. Shake the pan regularly and remove from the heat as soon as they're done to prevent burning.
- Grind the sesame seeds using a mortar and pestle until you have a fine powder.
- Pour the ground sesame into a container and add 2 tbsp Japanese style mayonnaise, 1 tsp rice vinegar, 1 ½ tsp sugar, 1 tsp soy sauce and 1 tsp toasted sesame oil.
- Mix until well combined and enjoy!
Cup of Yum
Large batch (16 portions)
- Toast 115 g white sesame seeds in a large dry pan until golden and fragrant, then pour into a food processor and blitz until they become a powder.
- Add 190 g Japanese style mayonnaise, 40 ml rice vinegar, 35 g sugar, 40 ml soy sauce and 40 ml toasted sesame oil. Blitz again until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 1 week.
- The 2 servings batch doesn't work in a food processor since the amount is too small. I recommend a food processor for large batches.
