Testing of black sesame paste
Today was a super busy day for me. So much things to be handled today. My days are always like that. When I am free, I am so free that I just stare in the blank air. When I am busy, I don't even have time to eat. It's nice to be busy once in a while I guess, it helps to keep unhealthy thoughts away. So many people is going to ORD soon which means I would have much lesser friends. Mine would be coming soon, not that far already.
Thanks to someone who wrote a post upon my "heavenly" request. Appreciated that lots. That someone also requested to eat black sesame paste this sat. It's a wonder why I never tried before despite me knowing quite a variety of desserts. But well, it's something new to try. So i had to experiment in advance to make sure it's edible. Cause my first attempt always turn out to be disastrous. Not really bad to that extent just wanna make sure it's of some standard.
Bought the ingredients today. Just black sesame and caster sugar. Just to share, caster sugar dissolves more easier than the sugar you use for coffee. So consider trying it if you need sugar for baking or desserts.

My first attempt didn't turn out to be good. the paste turned out to be watery. I guess it's the blending part that gone wrong. I should have grind the sesame seeds before blending. I also should sieve the misture before cooking. Overall was a not so bad first try but can be improved so much.
