For the Stuffing
Fry onion and celery in oil until translucent but still crunchy.
Remove from heat and add bread crumbs, pour broth and remaining ingredients over, and stir well while heating on low.
Place stuffing in an 8-inch square pan. Lightly brush the top with sesame oil and cover with foil, baking for 350 degrees F for 30 to 60 minutes, depending on desired crispiness.

In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, saute onion and garlic in oil until soft. Add mushrooms and cook 5 minutes over low heat. Stir in flour; cook over medium heat for 2 minutes. Add water or stock, soy sauce, and molasses. Cook, stirring, until thickened, about 3 to 4 minutes. Season with herbs and pepper.
