Sprinkle in the sesame seeds, black pepper, and salt. Stir to ensure the spices and seeds are evenly mixed into the dressing.
Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or sweetener to suit your preference.
Transfer the dressing to a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Shake well before using each time to ensure the ingredients are well combined.
