Wash and break Chard leaves into smaller pieces.

You can use your hands or pile the leaves on top on each other and cut through them with a knife making strips about 1 inch wide.

3
Place in sauce pan, cover with water and boil for a minimum of 4 minutes to remove the Oxalic Acid (longer if you want the leaves to be more tender).

4
While the Chard is cooking, ground the sesame seeds in a coffee grinder or your Vita Mix, making a soft powder consistency.

*Make extra is you like and store in a glass container in the fridge to use for a few days not much longer as the oils in the sesame seeds will go rancid.

When the Chard is cooked, drain the water off and discard.

Be careful with the Tarmari as it is strong and can take over.
