How to make black sesame balls
1. Soak in cold water and wash
This step is very important. Because there is a selection process, a small dice is used to wash the sesame seeds, and the unrounded sesame seeds floating on the surface are not needed. We only use round white sesame seeds from the dice.
2. Test the germination rate of very round white sesame seeds
See whether the energy contained in them is sufficient. The germination rate should not be less than 95. Observe the results of germination several times. They all reached 97 or even 100. Some may have too many small blisters during the budding process. Only white sesame seeds with such a high germination rate and all viable seeds can be selected for making sesame balls.
3. Cooking
On a sunny day, at about 5 o'clock in the morning, just one hour after steaming, the rich aroma of black sesame powder will come out. Be sure to steam thoroughly. When the time is up, put the black sesame powder into a clean ring-shaped bamboo dustpan.
4. Dry
Be careful not to spread the white sesame seeds too thickly to ensure that the bottom layer of white sesame seeds can touch the sun. Spread a thin layer, the average value is less than 0.5 cm. Roll once every 0.5-1 hour to ensure the sesame seeds are evenly dried. Start sunbathing at 8 o'clock every morning and stop after noon to absorb enough Qi and blood!
5. Repeat the above operation eight times
Repeat the above process nine times, remembering that it needs to be cleaned each time because there is dust when it is exposed to the sun outside.

6. Grind into powder
Grind the black sesame powder twice with a stone mill after nine steaming and nine sun-dryings. Then mash it with a stone mortar. This is often not mixed with honey before mashing. The reason is that after many experiments, it was found that when pure honey with moisturized heat is mashed, Master Yin Guang often said that the essence of black sesame powder that is most nourishing to the body-" "Grub sesame oil" will dissolve a lot, but it cannot be purchased. Therefore, adjust the sequence to ensure that the "big grinding sesame oil" flows out as little as possible.
7. Refining honey
When refining honey, first boil the honey over a fire, then reduce to a simmer and slowly boil out the honey that "seeps into beads", and remove the Liquid paraffin and other residues floating on the surface of pure honey.
8. Make meatballs
Mix sesame seeds and honey evenly according to appropriate proportions to make meatballs, shape into balls appropriately, and wrap in wrapping paper. Seal the bag of prepared meatballs tightly.
