List of Ingredients
4 cups sesame seeds
8 level tablespoons honey
1 generous cup sugarRecipe
Preheat the oven to 350 F. Spread the sesame seeds out on a baking sheet and roast in the oven until golden brown.
Heat the honey and sugar in a saucepan over a medium heat until the mixture caramelizes. Using a sugar thermometer, make sure the temperature of the mixture does not exceed 470 F (250 C). Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the toasted sesame seeds.
Grease a marble slab (or any other cool, smooth surface) with sunflower oil and tip the mixture onto it. Roll out thinly using a greased rolling pin. Cut small bars from the mixture and place on a wire tray to cool.
Wrap the bars individually in plastic wrap. They will keep for a long time in a tightly closed container.
