Step 1
Toast the sesame seeds. Put two tablespoons of sesame seeds in a frying pan over medium heat. When the seeds begin to pop, take them off the heat to cool.
-
Step 2
Make the dough for the tarts. In a mixing bowl, combine one and a quarter cups of flour, a pinch of salt and the toasted sesame seeds. Bring one half-cup water and one quarter-cup canola oil to a boil. Pour the hot liquid over the flour mixture and stir until dough is formed.

Step 3
Prepare the tart pan. Press a small ball of dough into each cup in a mini-muffin pan, forming the crust for a tiny tart. If the dough is too soft to work with, refrigerate it for an hour before lining the muffin cups.

Step 4
Mix the venison filling. Combine one pound of ground venison, one package of chopped dates, one quarter-cup minced onions, two tablespoons canola oil and one egg in a mixing bowl. Squish the mixture with your hands until everything is combined. Salt and pepper to taste.

Step 5
Finish the appetizer. Fill each crust with the venison mixture. Bake at 350 degrees until the crust is light brown. Allow to cool for a few minutes before taking the appetizers out of the pan and placing on a tray to serve.
