Toasted Sesame Seeds

To bring out their nutty flavor, toast the seeds in a small, dry skillet for about 15 minutes in a 350 degree oven. The benne seed, as sesame is known in the South, enhances more than breads and desserts., try sprinkling the seeds over steamed vegetables or a crumble-top casserole
