No-Face Crostini 

Spirited Away is my hands down favorite Studio Ghibli movie, and I’m absolutely in love with these little crostini! Homemade sesame seed paste make these taste even better.
Keyword: black sesame seed, crostini, no face, studio ghibli
Servings: 15 crostini

Ingredients

  • 7 tbsp black sesame seeds toasted
  • 1 1/2 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 1/2 tbsp honey
  • 2 pinches of salt
  • 1 small ball of fresh mozzarella cheese
  • 1 sheet of nori seaweed
  • 1 baguette

Instructions

  • First, make the sesame paste. Place the sesame seeds in a food processor and pulse until they are finely ground and are secreting their oil. Then add the sesame oil and honey, and mix together.
  • Slice the baguette into long, oval slices, and toast. Then slice the mozzarella into oval slices.
  • Spread the sesame seed paste onto the toast, then place the mozzarella slices on top. Slice out No-Face’s eyes and markings on his mask out of the nori, and stick them directly onto the cheese.
