Instructions
Toast sesame seeds in a dry pan over medium low heat until golden and fragrant (careful not to burn them).
Allow the sesame seeds to cool, and place in a food processor or blender with sesame oil.
Grind down to a paste, and continue streaming in sesame oil slowly until a smooth paste forms. You can also add salt to taste, if desired.
