How about trying some Greek Dessert. If you love Greek food like I do - then this will make your mouth water. I have tried this dessert and its absolutely dee-lish! Of course, I personally prefer it without the Sesame seeds, but there are those who love these little seeds on everything. This candy is excellent for any sweet tooth. Its a boost of energy. You can also serve at a Tea party. Its elegant enough to serve with a cup of tea.
1 1/3 C of Honey
3 C of hulled white Sesame Seeds
1 strip of lemon peel
In a saucepan, bring honey and lemon peel to a boil. Add sesame seeds stirring continuously and continue to cook while stirring to mix completely and thoroughly. When the seeds are fully mixed in and the mixture has boiled again, remove from heat. Remove and discard lemon peel.
Spread a piece of baking parchment on a cool work surface and spread out the hot mixture thinly and evenly, on the paper (about 1/4 inch high).
When the pasteli cools to room temperature, refrigerate, as is, on the parchment paper (it doesn't need to be covered). Chill for at least 2-3 hours. With a kitchen shears, cut the pasteli into small pieces, together with the parchment paper on the bottom, and serve. To eat, peel off the parchment paper. Refrigerate the rest.
