Steps:
- Heat oven to 250 degrees. Brush or spray one sheet of nori very lightly with a little water and sprinkle it with sea salt. Fold sheet in half and press two sides together (sheets will not bind perfectly; do not worry).
- Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut layered nori into 1-by-3-inch strips (or any desired size). Transfer strips to a cookie sheet in a single layer. Bake them for about 15 to 20 minutes; they will crisp and darken.
- When chips are done, carefully slide them off cookie sheet onto racks (they cool quickly). To serve, brush chips gently with sesame oil. Without oil, chips will stay fresh in a covered container for a day or two.

Tips:
- Select Fresh Nori Sheets: Choose high-quality nori sheets that are dark green and have a smooth texture. Avoid sheets that are brittle or have holes.
- Use Good Quality Soy Sauce: Opt for a naturally brewed soy sauce with a rich flavor. Avoid low-sodium or light soy sauce, as they may not provide enough flavor.
- Make Sure the Sugar Dissolves Completely: Heat the soy sauce and sugar mixture gently until the sugar dissolves completely. This will prevent the sugar from crystallizing and ensure a smooth glaze.
- Toast the Sesame Seeds: Toasting the sesame seeds enhances their flavor and aroma. Make sure to toast them just until they become fragrant, as over-toasting can make them bitter.
- Be Careful Not to Overcook the Nori Strips: Keep a close eye on the nori strips while they are baking. They should be crispy but not burnt. Overcooked nori strips will be tough and chewy.
