How do you prepare sesame seeds?

Answer 1

Are you looking to add to baked goods as a flour? Best way I can think of is to get a coffee grinder-- if you already have one run some rice through it; that will get all of the coffee out of it. Put in as much as your grinder will handle and then pulse until the flax seed reaches the desired texture. You can get a coffee grinder for $10-15 at most grocery or drug stores.

(Or you can take away their XBox and send them to their room...)

Answer 2

There are a couple of different ways you could grind sesame seeds. A mortar and pestle is probably the easiest way. You could also grind them in a spice grinder or a coffee grinder that you use for grinding spices. Another way you could try, I don't know for sure if this will work, would be to put them in a thick ziplog bag, then use either the flat side of a meat tenderizer or a rubber mallet, whack them a few times to "crack" them, then break them apart from there...

Answer 3

Try the traditional macrobiotic seasoning, gomasio, to enliven your food. You can either purchase gomasio at a health food store or make your own by grinding together one part sea salt with twelve parts dry roasted sesame seeds. Sesame seeds are delicious on steamed broccoli that has been sprinkled with lemon juice. Add sesame seeds into the dough or batter for bread, muffins, or cookies. Spread tahini (sesame paste) on toasted bread and add some miso for a savory snack. Combine sesame seeds with rice vinegar, soy sauce, and crushed garlic and use as a dressing for salads, vegetables, and noodles.
