The inspiration was gomasio, the Japanese seasoning of toasted sesame seeds and salt. We combined Cypress flake sea salt and our pressure toasted yeast. We pulverized them with a pestle. The flakes retained some of their irregular texture. The yeast pulverized but did not become a fine powder. The savory, toasty flavors of the yeast combined with the salt to make an intense, umami-rich, go-to seasoning.
