Ingredient Notes
Black Sesame Seeds: Rich in antioxidants.

Nutritional Yeast: Adds a cheesy flavor.
Charcoal Powder: For an homogenous black color, optional. Ensure it’s food-grade. We love it for a fun Halloween recipe, but charcoal can interact with certain medication. So we don’t recommend consuming it without chatting first with your health care provider if you’re currently on medication.
