Ingredients
Method
Step-by-Step
- Add the white sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried minced onion, dried minced garlic, and coarse kosher salt or flaky sea salt to a small bowl or jar.
- Stir the ingredients thoroughly with a small spoon, or secure the lid on the jar and shake until the seeds, onion, garlic, and salt are evenly distributed.
- Taste a small pinch and add a little more salt if desired, keeping in mind that the seasoning may be used on foods that already contain salt.
- Transfer the mixture to an airtight container if you used a bowl, then store it at room temperature in a cool, dry cupboard.
Notes
Use dried minced onion and dried minced garlic instead of onion powder and garlic powder for the classic crunchy texture and attractive appearance. Do not cook the seasoning mixture by itself; add it after baking, or use it before baking only when the food will not cook long enough to scorch the garlic or onion.
