The water that cleans sesame leaves, my mother told me, it washed his hair with it when he was a child, it can make his hair black and shiny! I don’t know if it’s true.
2: When the sesame leaves are free, we prepare the small ingredients. Cut the spring onions into rings, mince the garlic, and cut the millet spicy into rings, put them all in a small bowl, and then put the peppercorn skin and sesame seeds.
3) Green smoke in the oil in the pot, pour on the peppercorn skin, spring onion, minced garlic, sesame seeds, peppercorn skin, fully stimulate the aroma of the head of the material, stir well, season salt, chicken essence, small ground sesame oil, light soy sauce, aged vinegar stir again and set aside.

5: Then there is only one July in the year, such a precious sesame leaf, if not eaten in time, can only wait until the next year! So we should stock it up more at once, and here are 2 ways to stock up on sesame leaves.
