For a stronger aroma and crunch, toast the seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat for a few minutes, shaking frequently to prevent burning. Let them cool slightly before use to preserve the nutty oils. These seeds pair especially well with soy, citrus, and sesame oil to create balanced flavor notes without dominating the plate.
