- 1 cup sesame seeds
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp. honey tips & tricks
- 1 pinch ground Himalayan pink salt
In a medium skillet over medium heat, add sesame seeds and toast until lightly brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar, honey and sea salt. Stir constantly until the sugar is dissolved, about 3 minutes.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil and cook for 2-3 minutes or until the color turns amber.
Add toasted sesame seeds and quickly stir until well blended.
Rapidly remove from the heat and dump the mixture onto a silicone mat.
Spread mixture using a greased angled spatula, and place another silicone mat on top.
Roll down to a thin layer (the thinner it is, the crunchier it gets) with a rolling pin.
Gently peel off the silicone mat and score with a greased knife into 2-inch square (you might have to re-score a few times as it gets harder).
