Can you sub the sessame oil for olive or Avocado oil?
Sure- but the sesame oil adds flavor as the other oils are neutral.
can any components of this be made in advance? how early and how to store?
You can definitely make it in advance and freeze it. I like to freeze in a special freezer-safe container and it should last for up to 3 months.
Thanks! You freeze it in the glaze? or separately?
