A delightful and easy-to-make snack combining the nutty flavor of sesame seeds with the natural sweetness of honey and a hint of citrus zest.
Combine the honey and water in a heavy-bottomed saucepan and heat over medium heat.
Stir occasionally to prevent the mixture from sticking to the pan.
Bring the mixture to a boil and cook until it reaches 250°F (firm ball stage) on a candy thermometer.
Use a candy thermometer for accuracy to achieve the right consistency.
Remove from heat and stir in the toasted sesame seeds and orange zest until well combined.
Work quickly as the mixture will start to set as it cools.
Spread the mixture onto a parchment-lined surface to about 1/4 inch thickness using a spatula or rolling pin.
Use a rolling pin for an even thickness and a smooth surface.
Cut into bite-sized squares while still warm using a knife.
A pizza cutter can make this step quicker and easier.
Allow the squares to cool completely before serving or storing.
Place the bites in an airtight container to keep them fresh for longer.
