5-Minute Japanese Roasted Sesame Dressing | Recipe Drop | Food52

Check out Food52's new series Recipe Drop, where one of our Test Kitchen experts walks us through a brand-new recipe they developed just for Food52. Tune in for exclusive original recipes, from buttery pastries to showstopping roasts.
Today, Test Kitchen member César Pérez is joined by Jun, founder of Jun & Tonic, a recipe blog and content platform dedicated to showing off his Malaysian methodology. Jun writes about this dressing, "So when I ran out of Kewpie sesame dressing the other day, instead of heading to the supermarket for a top up, I recreated it at home, which turned out to be surprisingly easy! All you need is to toast up some white sesame seeds (either in the oven or on a hot pan) and give them a gentle pounding until they’re sandy. Then, just mix all the ingredients with the sesame seeds in a bowl." - Jun

honestly though, most people don't even think about water being an ingredient in food, but especially with broth and stock it can make a huge difference what water you use, coffee nerds understand this well

When he Said "where do we start" why did he keep his hands up and look so confused for so long? 🤣🤣🤣

[@dougjones2065]

Why does the white host have to question white sugar in the recipe? The Asian chef featured was like “what”? Polite to a fault. But I’ll say, no substitute needed

[@cesar.ramon.perez.medero]

“White host?!” 🤣🤣🤣
