White Sesame Seeds: These are the basic sesame seeds you usually find everywhere. Black Sesame Seeds: These are sesame seeds with the hulls still intact. They will have a nuttier crunchier texture. Poppy Seeds: Adds that bit of extra crunch and flavor. Dried Minced Garlic: Found in the spice aisle, adds incredible flavor. Dried Minced Onion: Dried onion comes in different sizes, make sure you get minced so that it isn’t too big. Coarse Sea Salt: You will want the larger coarse salt to go with the seeds and stick to the bagel or anything else you might put it on.
