Emeril Lagasse


List of Ingredients




1-1/2 cups Honey
1/4 cup Water
2-1/2 tbsp. Lemon Juice
1 tbsp. Sesame Seeds, toasted
1-1/2 tbsp. Butter, melted
1/2 cup Tahini paste

Recipe



Combine the honey and 1/4 cup water in a saucepan and slowly bring to a boil. Add the lemon juice and the sesame seeds. Gently boil until it reaches the soft-ball stage (234 to 238°F) on a candy thermometer.

Brush a parchment-lined baking sheet with the melted butter. Quickly whip the tahini paste into the sugar mixture using a wooden spoon to form a smooth consistency. Pour into the prepared pan. Set aside to cool.

Turn the candy out onto a cutting board, peel off the paper, and, with a sharp knife, cut into workable pieces.
