Notes
Notes
- Ask your local produce seller for green garlic. I had to ask a manager who knew where to find it. If you can’t find it at your local produce store you can substitute a clove of regular garlic for 2 stalks of Green Garlic.
- Also, make sure you use toasted sesame oil. It gives a stronger “sesame” flavor and allows you to use less oil than the untoasted variety.
