Crunchy Adult Rusk- Spicy Sesame Flavor

• 1 loaf French bread or Baguette, 2 days old
• 4 Tablespoons mayonnaise
• 4 teaspoons Tohbanjan (chili bean paste, see Notes)
• 4 teaspoons sesame oil
• Sesame seeds, for sprinkling

1. Thinly slice bread, about 1/4 inch.
2. Mix mayo and tobanjan until well mixed, then add sesame oil and mix again.
3. Spread the dressing on the bread slices, not too thick.
4. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
5. I grilled in my microwave oven on the 'toast' cycle which was fine (about 4 minutes). I would bake rather than broil in a larger oven.
6. Mayo Notes*-rnI used Kewpie Mayonnaise. It is soft and very smooth, and tasty. You could thin other mayos with water, but a touch of vinegar is nice too.
7. Notes**- If the sesame oil is a little hard from being cold in the fridge, set it out for about 10 minutes to warm it up for mixing.
8. Notes***- Make as above, then add a buttery cheese like Havarti, toast again.
9. The flower is a Chocolate Orchid- it really smells like chocolate.
