About 2 pints of candy.
Prep 2 pieces of parchment paper about 10"x14" (about the size of a medium cutting board) by greasing one side with butter. (I don't have silicone mats so used greased parchment paper.)
Toast in large pan, stirring frequently, about 3-4 minutes until fragrant and/or lightly toasted.
Then pour into metal bowl to let cool while preparing the syrup.
Add in large pan (can use same pan you toasted sesame seeds in.)
- 1.5 tsp. mild tasting oil, like grapeseed or avocado
- 2 T. honey
- 1/3 c. sugar
Stir together, then heat while stirring over medium heat several minutes until sugar dissolves and syrup is runny. Must stir to keep sugar from burning.
Once sugar dissolves, remove from heat and add toasted sesame seeds.
Then working somewhat quickly pour mixture somewhat evenly on one greased parchment sheet and cover with the other greased side down. Press down gently and use rolling pin to roll out candy in thin layer.
Remove top sheet. While candy is still warm use a pizza cutter or knife to first cut 1" wide strips. Then cut across strips to to make pieces about 1" long.
Let cool all the way, then store in airtight container.
