Steps
1
Toast on skillet: Set a small skillet on the stove over medium heat. When the pan is hot, add the sesame seeds. After 30 seconds, swirl the sesame seeds in the pan with a spoon so that they brown evenly for 3 to 4 minutes. Lower the heat if you see smoke or the seeds brown too quickly.
2
Cool: Immediately transfer the sesame seeds onto a plate to fully cool.
3
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
4
Bake the sesame seeds: Spread the sesame seeds in a small baking sheet. Bake until nicely browned, using a spatula to stir them halfway through so that they brown evenly. Start checking at the 4 minute mark since they burn quickly. Bake for 5 to 6 minutes.
5
Cool: Allow the sesame seeds to cool completely on the baking sheet.
6
Transfer to a container: Transfer the cooled sesame seeds into a jar or lidded other container with a tight seal and store in the pantry for up to 1 week, the fridge for up to 3 months or freezer for up to 6 months. Did you love the recipe? Leave us stars below!
