Ingredients

  • 1 cup hulled sesame 2
  • 80 grams local honey

Method

  1. Place the sesame in a skillet over low heat without any additions... stir the sesame until it is nicely toasted.
  2. When the sesame is toasted, reduce the heat, add the honey, and stir so the sesame absorbs all the honey.
  3. Turn off the heat and pour the sesame-and-honey mixture onto parchment paper... spread the brittle thinly and then place another piece of parchment over the top and roll it with a rolling pin... when the surface is smooth, immediately remove the top parchment so it does not stick.
  4. When the brittle cools, cut it as desired...
