smithhemb Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Anyone know whether any grocery store in DC stocks toasted sesame paste? No luck at Rodman’s, World Market, Whole Foods, Safeway, or Giant near me. Some days I miss California.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smithhemb Posted June 20, 2018 Author Share Posted June 20, 2018 Nah — it was Amazon’s exorbitant price that was motivating me to check out some new grocery stores. I can replicate SoCal in Gaithersburg, what with 99 Ranch and HMart, but I thought I should check and see what’s left in DC. Didn’t know whether there were any ethnic markets left in Chinatown or whether this was something Hana might stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MsDiPesto Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 That's an ingredient in the NYT's Takeout-Style Sesame Noodle recipe. I've never been able to find it. A commenter in the Times talked about making their own with sesame seeds and posted a recipe: http://www.tastehongkong.com/recipes/homemade-sesame-paste-from-scratch/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithhemb Posted June 22, 2018 Author Share Posted June 22, 2018 Thanks! I may give that a try. And it was the same NYT recipe that started me on this quest, LOL! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
