  1       tb           Sesame seeds
  8       c            Homemade chicken broth
  2       tb           Finely chopped garlic
  2       tb           Finely grated fresh ginger
    1/2   c            Uncooked white rice
  1       tb           Reduced-sodium soy sauce

 In a small dry skillet, toast sesame seeds over
 medium-high heat, shaking often, until lightly browned

 bowl and set aside.  In a large pot, combine chicken
 broth, garlic and
 ginger; bring to a boil over high heat.  Add rice,
 reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the
 rice is tender, 12  to 15 minutes.  Stir in soy sauce
 and sesame oil; add chile paste to taste.  Add chicken
 and heat just until warmed through.  Ladle the soup
 into bowls and garnish with scallions and the reserved
 sesame seeds.
