How to Make Sesame Brittle
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar, corn syrup, and water. Stir constantly until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, without stirring, and cook until it reaches 300°F (150°C) on a candy thermometer (firm-ball stage).
- Remove from heat and immediately stir in the sesame seeds and vanilla extract.
- Quickly pour the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it thinly and evenly using a spatula or spoon.
- Let the brittle cool completely before breaking it into pieces. This is crucial for achieving the signature crisp texture.
- Once cooled, break the brittle into bite-sized pieces and store in an airtight container.
