Sesame Seed Sauce for Vegetables Recipe

From Vegetarian Express Lane Cookbook by Sarah Fritschner (Chapters Publishing Ltd), for About.com

Use this sesame seed sauce as a topper for cooked fresh vegetables, particularly green vegetables. It is quite simple to make with just a few ingredients, yet quite tasty.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup sesame seeds
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons vinegar (any kind)
  • 3 Tablespoons soy sauce

Preparation:

Toast sesame seeds in a dry heavy skillet over medium heat. Stir them frequently, removing the pan from the heat for several seconds if they seem to be cooking unevenly. When they are golden and smell toasty, remove from the heat.

Combine sugar, vinegar, and soy sauce in a jar or dish. Stir to dissolve sugar and stir in sesame seeds.

Yield: about 1/3 cup
