  • 1.5 cup scallions (yep, I wasn’t kidding about #scallionstories. Always have some going!)
  • 2 tbsp sesame oil
  • 4 tbsp honey or agave

  • Sprinkle with sesame seeds. The honey coat will allow them to stick.
  • Bake at indicated temperature and time, and start smelling nutty sesame and fragrant scallions. Enjoy!
