An Easy Snack: Sesame Crackers
- 240 ml Sesame seeds (White, black, or a blend of both)
- 3 tbsp Unrefined brown cane sugar (powdered)
- 1 tbsp Honey
- 2 tbsp Water
- 1 tsp Margarine (or butter), optional
- If using pre-roasted sesame seeds, roast them to release the aromas.
- Heat in a thick-bottomed pot or pan on low heat until fragrant, and transfer to a bowl.
- To make the syrup, use a small pot and stir the brown sugar, honey, and water over low heat.
- After simmering, large bubbles will form.
- Without stirring the pot, repeatedly lift the pot away from the heat, then return it back.
- Once it thickens, check the consistency.
- Do this by filling a cup with water and dropping the syrup in the water; if it hardens, then it's done.
- Remove from heat immediately.
- If the drop of syrup dissolves into the water and scatters, then the syrup needs to be simmered longer.
- Add margarine and agitate the pot while it melts, then add the sesame seeds and stir the ingredients together.
- Once the texture is evenly incorporated, pour the batter between two pieces of parchment paper, and roll out to 1 cm thickness.
- Once it cools down, chill in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes, and when it hardens (it will not completely stiffen) cut into desired sizes, and serve!
- (The photo shows them cut roughly into 2 and 1/2 cm squares.)
- They will absorb moisture, so it's best to store them in a can or container, and keep them in the refrigerator.
