Ingredients

2 cups brown sesame seeds unhulled, can use black sesame seeds
1 1/2 tablespoons maldon sea salt or Celtic
1 1/2 tablespoons dulse flakes
1 teaspoon cinnamon for a breakfast option
1/4 cup seeds black, mustard seeds, cumin seeds or pumpkin seeds.

Directions

1

In a heavy skillet (cast iron is best), toast salt (and dulse) until it turns a grey color. Set aside.
2

Toast the 2 cups sesame seeds, stirring constantly, until they start popping and turn a nice brown color. Watch them closely, or they will burn!
3

The traditional way to grind them is with a mortar and pestle, just until the seeds crack open and release their oils.The texture should be light and sandy when crushed to 95%. Sometimes I don't even grind
4

Let cool -- the longest part of the prep time. (15 minutes)
5

Store Gomasio in a tightly closed glass jar, keep in a cool dry place! The refrigerator isn't necessary. Lasts 6 months.
6

Sprinkle over detox foods like macrobowls, steamed veggies, congee, porridge, brown rice, salad or non detox foods suchas baked potatoes or salmon....almost anything!
