Dry Roasted Edamame With Black Sesame Seeds Food

DRY ROASTED EDAMAME BRITTLE

Steps:

• Place the edamame, soy sauce, cayenne pepper and salt into a small mixing bowl and stir to combine.
• Line a half sheet pan with a silicone baking mat.
• Place a 3-quart saucier inside a large cast iron skillet. Add the sugar and water to the saucier, and cook over high heat, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon, until it comes to a boil. Stop stirring, cover, and cook for 3 minutes. Uncover, reduce heat to medium, and cook until the sugar is a light amber color, approximately 25 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the edamame mixture. Working quickly, pour the mixture onto the prepared half sheet pan and spread thin with an oiled spatula. You will have to work quickly when pouring out and spreading the mixture in the pan. Cool completely, approximately 30 minutes, and then break into pieces. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

BLACK SESAME BUCKEYES

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the black sesame paste, butter, vanilla, cinnamon and salt and beat on medium speed until smooth and creamy, 1 to 2 minutes. Stop the mixer, scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula, add the powdered sugar, and turn the mixer back on to low speed to incorporate. Once you're reasonably confident that powdered sugar won't fly everywhere you can increase the speed to medium and continue mixing, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed, until everything is combined and you have a soft dough. Roll 1-inch balls of the dough until very smooth and place them on the parchment paper. Freeze for 20 minutes.
• In a small bowl or mug, combine the chocolate and coconut oil and microwave in 30-second increments, stirring after each, until smooth and melted. Alternatively, you can melt the chocolate in a mixing bowl set over a small pot of barely simmering water, stirring until just melted. Working one at a time, pick up the frozen balls by poking the tops with a toothpick or wooden skewer and then dip them into the chocolate about 3/4 of the way, leaving the top exposed. Scrape excess chocolate off the bottom, transfer back to the baking sheet, take the toothpick out and then smooth over the hole with a knife. Sprinkle with flaky salt and black and white sesame seeds, if desired. Allow the chocolate to set before serving. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
