I had made some sesame sauce granules and thought that namul granules would also be good to have. So I tried making it and it came out to be so convenient and useful. It also tastes good when the vegetables are stir-fried, so when boiling vegetables for your bento lunchbox is too much work, you can quickly fry them with sesame oil and season them with these granules. They are also convenient to use as a rice topping or for rice balls.

They will burn very easily so please be careful. The point for a delicious outcome is to slowly and patiently dry it out. When using them to make namul, don't add it all at once, but add a little at a time and check the taste. You must add sesame oil along with the namul granules to the vegetables.

Steps

1

Combine all of the ingredients in a frying pan. Use your choice of chicken stock, dashida, MSG, instead of the Chinese soup stock! You can even omit it if you want.
2

Once all of the sesame seeds have become wet, turn on the heat. There is very little moisture, so it will burn very easily. Keep the heat on very low and slowly toast the ingredients until cooked.
3

Once it becomes crumbly and dry, turn off the heat. If it still feels damp when you touch it, it's not done yet.
4

If you leave it in the frying pan it will continue cooking with the residual heat and turn brown, so please transfer it to a storage jar.
5

You can store it at room temperature, but keeping it in the refrigerator will keep it out of the humidity and is safer. Before using it, shake it well.
