Recipe Ingredients

Black sesame seeds – Replace black sesame seeds with regular if you are unable to find them at the store.

Flaked sea salt – I occasionally have a hard time finding flaked salt at local grocery stores, so fine sea salt is usually my go-to for this recipe. Flaked, fine sea salt or kosher salt all work great.
