Ingredients

Main ingredients

  • 1 cup sesame seeds (dark sesame seeds are more nutritious, but white sesame seeds are also fine)

  • 1 cup sugar

  • 1 tablespoon oil

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

Directions

Prepare the Sesame Candies

1.

In a small saucepan on a medium heat, place the sugar, oil, and salt. Stir until it all melts and becomes a golden color. Remove from fire.

2.

Add the baking soda. Mix well. It should bubble up a bit.

3.

Add the sesame seeds. Mix very quickly as sugar hardens quickly and you want all the sesame seeds coated.

4.

Press the mixture down with a spoon in a thin layer into a bendable pan. Silicon pans and disposable aluminum pans work well for this.

5.

Once the mixture hardens a drop, score with a knife into small rectangles.

6.

Once completely cool, break along the scored lines.

Notes:

These candies can be a drop sticky and melt in warm weather. Wrap them individually in plastic wrap and store them in the freezer until serving or sending in mishloach manot.
