The trick with this is to keep grinding/blending the toasted sesame repeatedly, over and over, until you get the oil coming out. The more you grind it, the more oil you get, until you have a nice paste. It's amazing how it changes into an oily paste.

Try mixing a little of the paste with some vanilla ice cream... Actually, I got inspired after eating Haagen Dazs Black Sesame ice cream!
