1
sheet
dried nori seaweed
water
a small cup
1
tsp
sesame seeds
1
tsp
sesame oil
1
pinch
sea salt
Instructions
Preheat over to 160 C (320 F).
Cover a baking sheet or tray with aluminum foil. Set aside.
Using a pasty brush, lightly coat the foil with a thin layer of sesame oil.
Making nori chips
Lay one sheet of nori seaweed, rough side facing up, on a cutting board.
Using your hands, fold the sheet of seaweed in half once.
Press down on the crease with your hand until the folded seaweed lays flat.
Using a sharp knife, cut seaweed into strips approximately 3 cm wide. Each strip should have the fold at one end.
Open one of the seaweed strips.
Using a pastry brush, lightly apply water to the perimeter of the strip.
Sprinkle ground sesame seeds on one side of the strip, except for the edges that you brushed with water.
Fold the seaweed strip together to sandwich the ground sesame seeds on the inside.
Using your fingers, press down along the edges until they stick together and seal the ground sesame seeds on the inside.
Repeat the same process with each nori strip.
Using your fingers or chopsticks, transfer each folded seaweed strip onto the aluminum foil.
Baking the nori strips
Put baking sheet into the pre-heated oven.
Bake for about 2 minutes, until the seaweed changes to a lighter green color, begins to curl, and puffs up.
Keep your eyes on the oven to make sure the seaweed strips don't burn.
Once the seaweed starts to curl and turn crisp, remove baking pan from the oven.
Using your pastry brush, lightly coat each seaweed chip with sesame oil. A few drops of oil per chip is enough.
Sprinkle each chip with a small pinch sea salt.
Pick up each chip with chopsticks or an alternative utensil. Place baked seaweed chips in a cup or bowl.
Serve warm.
