Ingredients
- 3 cup Honey
- 2 cup Sesame Seeds
- Peanut Oil
Directions
Do not make candy on a hot or humid day.
In a deep, medium-size sauce pan slowly heat honey over medium-low heat, using heat defuser, to the hard-crack stage (about 305 to 310 on a candy thermometer).
Stir down often to prevent boiling over, about 45 minutes.
Stir in sesame seeds.
Set aside for a few minutes to cool slightly.
Lightly grease a 9 x 13 inch baking sheet with peanut oil.
Do not use waxed paper. Pour honey mixture on to it.
Set baking sheet on a cooling rack.
When cooled, but not hard.
Score into diamond shapes.
When cooled completely, remove candy and separate into pieces
