Question: The consensus seems to be that toasted (black) sesame seeds taste better than their raw counterpart.But what happens to the improved flavour when those toasted sesame seeds cool down or get refrigerated and consumed without being reheated/re-toasted? Is that improved flavour retained? And would microwaving cooled-down toasted sesame seeds make any improvements to flavour?

Answer: Do cooled-down/chilled toasted black sesame seeds taste nearly raw again?

Question: I'd like to try my hand at baking my own bread. Do I need a bread maker to get decent bread? Are there any advantages to using a bread maker vs. my normal oven?

Answer: Do I need a bread maker?

Question: Update: I managed to properly incorporate the gum without any clumping. I used an immersion blendsr (blade attachment) and mixed it with sugar this time, and it helped. To thicken a home made tomato sauce, I tried added xanthan gum. While the sauce did thicken (too much in fact, it was mucus like), it resulted in little white 'seeds' floating in the sauce, which was visually unappealing.First, I placed the sauce in a tall metal cup. I placed my immersion blender (with whisk attachment) inside and turned it on. With the high speed immersion blender whirring inside, I sprinkled xanthan gum inside, bit by bit.The xanthan gum powder did not mix well and white 'seeds' could be seen floating in the sauce.Are the 'seeds' a result of the xanthan gum clumping together? What should I do differently to mix it well to avoid this from happeningI should note that the sauce was quite hot (between 160F- 180F) when I added the gum. The sauce also consisted of mainly vinegar, and some sugar.

Answer:
Xanthan gum 'seeds' in sauce
