You're welcome! I've been on a sort of a sesame seed kick in the last
couple of months. I bought a large container which I store in the
freezer so they don't go rancid. I don't remember where I got that
recipe. It may have been from a cooking magazine. I jotted down and
tried a lot of recipes in the 1980's from cooking magazines. The
magazines are long gone but this one wound up in my recipe box as a
keeper.
