Black sesame roll

Black sesame roll is a refrigerated dim sum dessert originating in Hong Kong, popularised in the 1970s and 1980s.^[1] It can be found in overseas Cantonese yum cha restaurants as well. It has a sweet flavour and a smooth and soft texture.

Preparation of the dessert begins with drying a thin layer of black sesame paste. The paste eventually forms a thin refrigerated sheet.^[1] Then, the sheets are individually rolled up into a sesame roll.
