Zubereitung von Crunchy Sesame Seed Candy
- Lightly grease a 9x9 inch baking pan with cooking spray or oil. Set aside.
- In an ungreased 10-inch skillet, toast sesame seeds over medium-high heat for 5-10 minutes, stirring frequently, until lightly browned and fragrant.
- Transfer toasted sesame seeds to a bowl; set aside. Ensure no seeds remain in the skillet.
- Add honey, brown sugar, cinnamon, and ginger to the skillet. Whisk well to combine.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a rolling boil.
- Once boiling, continue to cook vigorously for exactly 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Remove from heat and immediately stir in the toasted sesame seeds until thoroughly combined.
- Quickly pour the hot mixture into the prepared pan. Dip a metal spatula in cold water and use it to spread the candy into a smooth, even layer.
- Let the candy cool in the pan for 15 minutes, or until solid but still slightly warm.
- Run the spatula around the edges to loosen the candy.
- Invert the candy onto a cutting board or wooden surface.
- Using a sharp knife, cut the candy into small squares, diamonds, or rectangles while still slightly warm.
- Allow the candies to cool completely.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature. For an elegant presentation, individually wrap each candy in a small piece of cellophane and twist the ends.
